FUND HIGHLIGHT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While investing in bonds has recently been a challenge for investors due to the
rise in interest rates during the past year, the managers believe the market
conditions may improve over the near term and they feel the Federal Reserve
Board's monetary actions may ultimately slow economic conditions and make bonds
more appealing to many investors over time. (Of course, no guarantees can be
given that this in fact will occur.)

Heath B. McLendon

Chairman


Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present the annual report for the Smith Barney Adjustable Rate
Government Income Fund ("Fund") for the year ended May 31, 2000. In this report,
we have summarized the prevailing economic and market conditions and outlined
the investment team's portfolio strategy.1


Performance Update

The Fund's investment objective is to seek high current income and limit the
degree of fluctuation of its net asset value ("NAV") resulting from movements in
interest rates. The Fund seeks to achieve these objectives by investing
primarily in adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities ("ARMs"), U.S.
government securities and asset-backed securities. The Fund calculates its NAV
daily and reports the NAV of Class A shares in national newspapers under the
heading Smith Barney Funds A as "AdjGvA."

As of May 31, 2000, the Fund's Class A share NAV was $9.62. For the 12-month
period ended May 31, 2000, the Fund's Class A shares posted a total return of
3.98% without the effects of sales charges. In comparison, the Merrill Lynch 1-3
Year Treasury Index2 returned 4.16% and the Lipper Inc. U.S. Government 1-Year
Treasury Bill Index returned 5.51% for the same period. (Lipper, Inc. is an
independent fund-tracking organization.)


Bond Market Update

The Federal Reserve Board ("Fed") raised interest rates seven times for a total
of 175 basis points3 during the reporting period. Furthermore, the Federal Open
Market Committee ("FOMC")4, led by Alan Greenspan indicated at its last meeting
that it would implement more rate increases in the months to come, if necessary.
In addition, the plan by the U.S. Treasury to buyback more than $30 billion of
its long-term debt obligations has led to reduced supply in the market.

As such, the price of longer-term bonds increased in relation to their
shorter-term counterparts, resulting in an inverted yield curve. (The yield
curve is a graphical depiction of the relationship between the yield on bonds of
the same credit quality but different maturities.) Instead of a "normal" yield
curve, with yields rising steadily along with the maturity of U.S. Treasury
bonds, the highest yields were for shorter-term bonds. At the end of the
reporting period, the yield of the two-year Treasury was 6.89%. In comparison,
the yield of the ten-year Treasury was 6.44%.

Mortgage-backed securities outperformed the broader domestic investment grade5
bond markets during the period, as the Lehman Brothers Mortgage Bond Index6
posted a total return of 1.25% in comparison with the 2.11% return of the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index7 during the reporting period. In the view of
BlackRock Financial Management ("BlackRock"), the Fund's sub-investment adviser,
pass-through securities are presently overpriced.


 1  The information provided represents the opinion of the manager and is not
    intended to be a forecast of future results. Further, there is no assurance
    that certain securities will remain in or out of the portfolio.
 2  The Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index is a market
    capitalization-weighted index including all U.S. Treasury notes and bonds
    with maturities greater than or equal to one year and less than three
    years. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.
 3  A basis point is 0.01% or one one-hundredth of a percent.
 4  The FOMC is the committee that sets interest rate and credit policies for
    the Federal Reserve System, the United States' central bank.
 5  Investment-grade bonds are those rated Aaa, Aa, A and Baa by Moody's
    Investors Service Inc. or AAA, AA, A, and BBB by Standard & Poor's Ratings
    Group, or that have an equivalent rating by any nationally recognized
    statistical rating organization or are determined by the manager to be of
    equivalent quality.
 6  The Lehman Brothers Mortgage Bond Index is a broad measure of the
    performance of mortgage-backed bonds in the U.S. market. An investor cannot
    invest directly in an index.
 7  The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is a broad measure of the
    performance of taxable bonds in the U.S. market, with maturities of at
    least one year. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.

Investment Strategy

As previously noted, the Fund seeks to provide high current income and to limit
the degree of fluctuation of its NAV resulting from movements in interest rates.

The Fund uses a "targeted duration" approach that strives for a dollar-weighted
average life (or period until next interest rate reset date) between one and
three years. (Duration is a rough measure of the price sensitivity of a fixed
income security relative to a given change in interest rates.) The result may be
a fund whose NAV performance is similar to that of a one- or two-year U.S.
Treasury security. Changes in the prices and yields of these U.S. Treasury
securities affect the value of the Fund's securities. In addition to interest
rates, prepayment rates of the mortgage securities held in the portfolio usually
affect the Fund's NAV.

The Fund's assets are actively managed based on the relative value analysis of
individual securities and sectors of the Fund's subadviser. In searching for
relative value opportunities, the BlackRock team targets securities and market
sectors within the short duration market that have underperformed and may have
strong potential for price appreciation. (Of course, there is no guarantee that
these objectives will be achieved.)

During the reporting period, the Fund bought Student Loan Marketing Association
("SLMA") and Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") securities. GNMAs
have recently come down in price due in large part to investor uncertainty in
the one-year Collateralized Mortgage Obligtation ("CMO")8 market. The BlackRock
team continues to think that floating-rate mortgages and Small Business
Administration loans represent good investment opportunities due to their
compelling yield potential and potentially strong credit quality, and the Fund
added to its holdings opportunistically in these areas during the period.


Market Outlook

While investing in bonds has recently been a challenge for investors due to the
rise in interest rates during the past year, the managers believe the market
conditions may improve over the near term and they feel the Fed's monetary
actions may ultimately slow economic conditions and make bonds more appealing to
many investors over time. (Of course, no guarantees can be given that this in
fact will occur.)

Thank you for your investment in the Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government
Income Fund. We look forward to continuing to helping you pursue your financial
goals in the new century.

Sincerely,


/s/ HEATH B. MCLENDON

+  Hypothetical illustration of $10,000 invested in Class A shares at inception
   on June 22, 1992, assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if
   any, at net asset value through May 31, 2000, compared to the Lipper, Inc.
   ("Lipper") U.S. Government 1-Year Treasury Bill Index. The index is comprised
   of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of one year. The index is unmanaged
   and is not subject to the same management and trading expenses as a mutual
   fund. An investor may not invest directly in an index. The performance of the
   Fund's other classes may be greater or less than the Class A shares'
   performance indicated on this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser
   sales charges and fees were incurred by shareholders investing in the other
   classes.

   All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
   results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and
   redemption value may be more or less than original cost. No adjustment has
   been made for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.



Adjustable Rate Mortgage-Backed Securities (ARMs) are instruments that bear
interest at rates that adjust at periodic intervals at a fixed amount over the
market levels of interest rates as reflected in specified indexes. ARMs directly
or indirectly represent an interest in, or are backed by and are payable from
mortgage loans secured by real property.

Asset-Backed Securities are similar in structure to Mortgage-Backed Securities,
except that the underlying asset pools consist of credit card, automobile or
other types of receivables, or commercial loans.

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) are Mortgage-Backed Securities
collateralized by mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities. Typically,
CMOs are collateralized by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, but also may be collateralized by whole loans or private mortgage
pass-through securities.

Planned Amortization Class Interest Only (PAC IOs) are CMO IOs which have
repayment schedules that are guaranteed if the actual speed of the prepayments
is within a designated range. PAC classes typically are combined with companion
classes that reduce the risk of the variation of the amount and timing of the
prepayments. Should the prepayments fall outside of the PAC band or ranges, the
class will not pay the prepayment as scheduled.

securities are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers in those
instruments or by an independent pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of
Trustees; (c) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at cost plus
accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which approximates value; (d)
interest income, adjusted for accretion of original issue discount, is recorded
on an accrual basis; (e) dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date; (f) gains or losses on the sale of securities
are calculated by using the specific identification method; (g) direct expenses
are charged to each class; management fees and general fund expenses are
allocated on the basis of relative net assets by class; (h) the Fund intends to
comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of
taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; (i) the character of income and gains to be distributed are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. At May 31, 2000, reclassifications
were made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect permanent book/tax
differences and income and gains available for distributions under income tax
regulations. Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets were not
affected by this change; and (j) estimates and assumptions are required to be
made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic
environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining
these estimates could cause actual results to differ.


2. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other
   Transactions

SSB Citi Fund Management LLC ("SSBC"), formerly known as SSBC Fund Management
Inc., a subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("SSBH"), which, in
turn, is a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup"), acts as investment
adviser to the Fund. The Fund pays SSBC an investment advisory fee calculated at
the annual rate of 0.40% of the average daily net assets. This fee is calculated
daily and paid monthly.

SSBC has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with BlackRock Financial
Management Inc. ("BlackRock"), a wholly owned subsidiary of PNC Bank, N.A.
Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, BlackRock is responsible for the
day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions for the Fund. SSBC pays
BlackRock a monthly fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average
daily net assets of the Fund. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.

SSBC also acts as the Fund's administrator for which the Fund pays a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly.

Effective October 1999, Citi Fiduciary Trust Company ("CFTC"), another
subsidiary of Citigroup, became the Fund's transfer agent and PFCP Global Fund
Services ("PFPC") became the Fund's sub-transfer agent. CFTC receives account
fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the size and type of account.
PFPC is responsible for shareholder recordkeeping and financial processing for
all shareholder accounts and is paid by CFTC. During the period October 1, 1999
through May 31, 2000, the Fund paid transfer agent fees of $36,801 to CFTC.

CFBDS, Inc. ("CFBDS") acts as the Fund's distributor. Salomon Smith Barney Inc.
("SSB"), another subsidiary of SSBH, as well as certain other broker-dealers,
continues to sell Fund shares to the public as a member of the selling group.

There is a maximum contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 5.00% on Class B
shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from the purchase of
a previously held fund (held by the shareholder prior to exchange into this
Fund) and declines thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is incurred. In
addition, Class A shares have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs
within the first year of purchase. This CDSC only applies to those purchases of
Class A shares which, when combined with current holdings of Class A shares,
equal or exceed $500,000 in the aggregate. These purchases do not incur an
initial sales charge. For the year ended May 31, 2000, CDSCs paid to SSB or
CFBDS for Class A and B shares were approximately $4,000 and 10,000,
respectively.

Pursuant to a Distribution Plan, the Fund pays a service fee with respect to
Class A, B, and I shares calculated at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average
daily net assets of each respective class. The Fund also pays a distribution fee
with respect to Class A and B shares calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% of
the average daily net assets of each class. For the year ended May 31, 2000,
total Distribution Plan fees incurred were:

                                           Class A        Class B        Class I
================================================================================
Distribution Plan Fees                    $763,812        $24,354        $80,108
================================================================================

All officers and one Trustee of the Fund are employees of SSB.


3. Investments
During the year ended May 31, 2000, the aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds
from sales of investments (including maturities, but excluding paydowns and
short-term securities) were as follows:

================================================================================
Purchases                                                           $322,773,883

Sales                                                                251,773,938
================================================================================

At May 31, 2000, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
investments for Federal income tax purposes were substantially as follows:

================================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation                                       $    65,516
Gross unrealized depreciation                                        (1,606,762)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized depreciation                                         $(1,541,246)
================================================================================


4. Cash Flow Information

Cash, as used in the Statement of Cash Flows, is the amount reported in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund issues and redeems its shares,
invests in securities and distributes dividends from net investment income and
net realized gains (which are either paid in cash or reinvested into the Fund at
the discretion of shareholders). These activities are reported in the Statement
of Changes in Net Assets. Information on cash payments is presented in the
Statement of Cash Flows. Accounting practices that do not affect reporting
activities on a cash basis include unrealized gain or loss on investment
securities and accretion of income recognized on investment securities.

5. Repurchase Agreements

The Fund purchases (and its custodian takes possession of) U.S. government
securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next business day) at
an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Fund requires continual maintenance
of the market value of the collateral in amounts equal to the repurchase price.

6. Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreement transactions for leveraging
purposes. A reverse repurchase agreement involves a sale by the Fund of
securities that it holds with an agreement by the Fund to repurchase the same
securities at an agreed upon price and date. A reverse repurchase agreement
involves the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may
decline below

the repurchase price of the securities. The Fund will establish a segregated
account with its custodian, in which the Fund will maintain cash, U.S.
government securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations as collateral
under the reverse repurchase agreement.

=========================================================================================================================

During the year ended May 31, 2000, the maximum and average amount of reverse
repurchase agreements outstanding at month ends were as follows:

=========================================================================================================================
Maximum amount outstanding                                                                                    $53,877,569

=========================================================================================================================
</TABLE>

Interest rates ranged from 4.45% to 6.66% during the year. Total market value of
the collateral for the reverse repurchase agreements is $56,107,034.

Interest expense for the year ended May 31, 2000 on borrowings by the Fund under
reverse repurchase agreements totalled $1,437,725.


7. Dollar Roll Transactions

The Fund may enter into dollar roll transactions. A dollar roll transaction
involves a sale by the Fund of securities that it holds with an agreement by the
Fund to repurchase similar securities at an agreed upon price and date. The
securities repurchased will bear the same interest as those sold, but generally
will be collateralized by pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories
than those securities sold. Proceeds of the sale will be invested and the income
from these investments, together with any additional income received on the
sale, will generate income for the Fund exceeding the yield on the securities
sold.

At May 31, 2000, the Fund had no open dollar roll transactions.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8. Securities Traded on a To-Be-Announced Basis

The Fund may trade securities on a "to-be-announced" ("TBA") basis. In a TBA
transaction, the Fund commits to purchasing or selling securities for which
specific information is not yet known at the time of the trade, particularly the
face amount and maturity date in GNMA transactions. Securities purchased on a
TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Fund, normally 15 to
45 days later. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and their
current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.

At May 31, 2000, the Fund did not hold any TBA securities.

9. Options Contracts

Premiums paid when put or call options are purchased by the Fund, represent
investments, which are marked-to-market daily and are included in the schedule
of investments. When a purchased option expires, the Fund will realize a loss in
the amount of the premium paid. When the Fund enters into a closing sales
transaction, the Fund will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales
proceeds from the closing sales transaction are greater or less than the premium
paid for the option. When the Fund exercises a put option, it will realize a
gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such
a sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When the Fund exercises
a call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon exercise
will be increased by the premium originally paid.

At May 31, 2000, the Fund had no purchased call or put option contracts.

When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the
premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability, the value of which is
marked-to-market daily. When a written option expires, the Fund realizes a gain
equal to the amount of the premium received. When the Fund enters into a closing
purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of the
closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was
written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying
security, and the liability related to such an option is eliminated. When a
written call option is exercised, the cost of the security sold will be
decreased by the premium originally received. When a written put option is
exercised, the amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of
the security which the Fund purchased upon exercise. When written index options
are exercised, settlement is made in cash.

The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally
paid. The Fund enters into options for hedging purposes. The risk in writing a
covered call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity to participate in
any increase in the price of the underlying security beyond the exercise price.
The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund is exposed to the risk of loss
if the market price of the underlying security declines.

The following covered call option transactions occurred during the year ended
May 31, 2000:

                                               Number of

10. Futures Contracts

Initial margin deposits made upon entering into futures contracts are recognized
as assets. Securities equal to the initial margin amount are segregated by the
custodian in the name of the broker. Additional securities are also segregated
up to the current market value of the futures contracts. During the period the
futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as
unrealized gains or losses by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect
the market value of the contract at the end of each day's trading. Variation
margin payments are received or made and recognized as assets due from or
liabilities due to broker, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are
incurred. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing
transactions and the Fund's basis in the contract. The Fund enters into such
contracts to hedge a portion of its portfolio. The Fund bears the market risk
that arises from changes in the value of the financial instruments and
securities indices (futures contracts).

At May 31, 2000, the Fund had the following futures contracts:

11. Capital Loss Carryforward

At May 31, 2000, the Fund had, for Federal income tax purposes, approximately
$6,968,000 of capital loss carryforwards available to offset any future capital
gains. To the extent that these carryforward losses are used to offset capital
gains, it is probable that the gains so offset will not be distributed. The
amount and expiration of the carryforwards are indicated below. Expiration
occurs on May 31 of the year indicated:


                              2003          2004         2005         2008

12. Shares of Beneficial Interest

At May 31, 2000, the Fund had an unlimited amount of shares of beneficial
interest authorized with a par value of $0.001 per share. The Fund has the
ability to issue multiple classes of shares. Class B shares are available for
purchase to certain investors in the Smith Barney 401(k) Program. In addition,
Class B shares can be purchased through exchanges. Each share represents an
identical interest in the Fund and has the same rights except that each class
bears certain expenses specifically related to the distribution of its shares.

At May 31, 2000, total paid-in capital amounted to the following for each class:


                                     Class A         Class B       Class I

Independent Auditors' Report
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the
Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, of the Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government
Income Fund as of May 31, 2000, and the related statements of operations and
cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for
each of the years in the two-year period then ended and financial highlights for
each of the years in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of May 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian. As to
securities purchased or sold but not yet received or delivered, we performed
other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Smith Barney Adjustable Rate Government Income Fund as of May 31, 2000, the
results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in
its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and
financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
