          LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF THE J.P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL
                           TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND

June 1, 1999

Dear Shareholder,

The previous six-month period was marked by continued strength in the U.S.
economy, coupled with benign inflation and a steepening yield curve. During this
period, the J.P. Morgan Institutional Treasury Money Market Fund posted a 2.36%
return, besting the 2.07% return of the IBC U.S. Treasury & Repo Money Fund
Average and the 2.17% return of the Lipper Institutional U.S. Treasury Money
Market Funds Average. The fund's current average seven-day yield is 4.65%.

The fund maintained a stable net asset value of $1.00 over the period. On
April 30, 1999, the net assets of the fund were approximately $267 million,
while the assets of The Treasury Money Market Portfolio, in which the fund
invests, amounted to approximately $627 million. Dividends of approximately
$0.02 per share were paid from ordinary income.

This report includes a discussion with Robert Johnson, the portfolio manager
primarily responsible for The Treasury Money Market Portfolio. In this
interview, Skip talks about the events of the previous six months that had the
greatest effect on the portfolio and discusses his investment strategy.

As chairman and president of Asset Management Services, we appreciate your
investment in the fund. If you have any comments or questions, please call your
Morgan representative or J.P. Morgan Funds Services at (800) 766-7722.

Sincerely yours,


/s/ Ramon de Oliveira                    /s/ Keith M. Schappert

FUND PERFORMANCE

EXAMINING PERFORMANCE
One way to look at performance is to review a fund's average annual total
return. This figure takes the fund's actual (or cumulative) return and shows
what would have happened if the fund had achieved that return by performing at a
constant rate each year. Average annual total returns represent the average
yearly change of a fund's value over various time periods, typically one, five,
or ten years (or since inception). Total returns for periods of less than one
year are not annualized and provide a picture of how a fund has performed over
the short term.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER Q & A

[PHOTO]

The following is an interview with ROBERT R. ("SKIP") JOHNSON, vice president, a
member of the portfolio management team for the Treasury Money Market Portfolio,
in which the fund invests.  Prior to joining Morgan in 1988, Skip held positions
with the Bank of Montreal and U.S. Steel, and founded the merchant banking firm
of R.R. Johnson Associates.  He is a graduate of Dartmouth College.  This
interview was conducted on May 18, 1999, and reflects Skip's views on that date.

WHAT FACTORS HAVE MOST INFLUENCED THE MONEY MARKETS OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS?

RRJ: In the U.S., the economy has continued to be strong, even stronger than we
had expected.  The strength of the equity markets, and the tremendous wealth
effect that has resulted for both households and corporation, has driven this
economic growth.  Our economist believes this wealth effect was a major reason
the U.S. was able to shrug off the economic sluggishness seen globally.  Such
persistent strength, particularly when coupled with signs of a rebound in global
economic growth like we have been seeing, would often incite the Federal Reserve
to bump up interest rates.  But with inflation remaining in check, the Fed has
maintained its neutral stance, although it just announced a shift to a
tightening bias from a neutral one.  But since tightening is not expected to
take place in the near term, we saw a modest steepening of the yield curve
during the period, particularly in the past few months.

Globally, things are beginning to settle down.  The Fed was forced to ease
short-term rates three times in the fourth quarter of 1998 in response to global
economic crises.  Of late, however, there are indications that the global
economy is beginning to stabilize, as evinced by industrial production growth in
Japan and firming prices of oil and other commodities.  This, combined with
benign inflation, is bolstering investor confidence and our confidence that
non-U.S. growth is bottoming.

TO WHAT DO YOU ATTRIBUTE THE PORTFOLIO'S PERFORMANCE OVER THE PERIOD?

RRJ: Our performance over the last six months has been strong, as we were able
to allocate assets into longer-term Treasury bonds from overnight repurchase
agreements as the Treasury yield curve out to one year steepened and these
instruments became more attractive.  We began moving more into the Treasuries in
January, when a strong GDP report caused market sentiment to shift away from
expectations of lower rates, a Fed easing, and a weaker economy.  Prior to that,
a flat to inverted yield curve forced us to weight the portfolio more heavily in
the repos, as there was little value in the Treasury curve.

We kept the average maturity long within its 60-day limit throughout the
six-month period.  Of course, at the same time, we always need to focus on
managing the portfolio's liquidity and maturity, so we can have assets available
to take advantage of any opportunities and to meet redemptions.  Although the
portfolio always maintains a barbell structure, we ladder the maturities of our
investments on the long end of the barbell to ensure adequate liquidity.


                                                                              3
<PAGE>

WHAT DO YOU SEE ON THE HORIZON IN THE MONEY MARKETS, AND HOW WILL YOU POSITION
THE PORTFOLIO?

RRJ: We expect the U.S. economy to continue to be strong; in fact, we recently
raised our 1999 GDP forecast again.  But since we also expect inflation to
continue to be benign, we think the Fed will stick with its patient approach to
rates and remain on hold in the near term, despite its shift to a tightening
bias.  This should result in continued steepening of the yield curve.
Regardless, we believe that concern in the market about the economy's continued
strength may override recent indications that inflation remains in check.  As a
result, we expect the 30-year Treasury bond to trade between 5.40% and 6.00%,
with risk on the upside of that range.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

AVERAGE MATURITY: The weighted average time to maturity of the entire portfolio
with the weights equal to the percentage of the portfolio invested in each
security (see Maturity).

CREDIT RATING: The rating assigned to a bond or note by independent rating
agencies such as Standard & Poor's Corporation and Moody's Investors Service. In
evaluating creditworthiness, these agencies assess the issuer's present
financial condition and future ability and willingness to make principal and
interest payments when due.

CREDIT RISK: Financial risk that an obligation will not be paid and a loss will
result.

LETTER OF CREDIT: Instrument or document issued by a bank guaranteeing the
payment of a customer's drafts up to a stated amount and eliminating the
seller's risk.

MATURITY: The date on which the life of a financial instrument ends through cash
or physical settlement or expiration with no value or the date a security comes
due and fully payable.

VARIABLE RATE DEMAND NOTE: Note representing borrowings that is payable on
demand and that bears interest tied to a base money market rate, usually the
bank prime rate. The rate on the note is adjusted upward or downward each time
the base rate changes.

YIELD: Coupon rate of interest on a bond divided by the purchase price. As a
bond's price falls, its yield rises and vice versa.

YIELD CURVE: A graph showing the term structure or level of interest rates
ranging from the shortest to the longest maturities. The resulting curve shows
if short-term interest rates are higher or lower than long-term rates. Normally,
the longer the bond, the higher the yield it offers, resulting in a positive
yield curve. An inverted yield curve can occur when there are supply/demand
imbalances for various maturities, which results in short-term rates at higher
levels than longer-term instruments.

YIELD SPREAD: The difference in yield between different types of securities. For
example, if a Treasury bond is yielding 6.00% and a municipal is yielding 5.00%,
the yield spread is 1.00% or 100 basis points.


                                                                               5

J. P. MORGAN INSTITUTIONAL TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
APRIL 30, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

J.P. Morgan Institutional Treasury Money Market Fund (the "fund") is a separate
series of J.P. Morgan Institutional Funds, a Massachusetts business trust (the
"trust") which was organized on November 4, 1992. The trust is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company. The fund commenced operations on July 8, 1997.

The fund invests all of its investable assets in The Treasury Money Market
Portfolio (the "portfolio"), a no-load diversified, open-end management
investment company having the same investment objective as the fund. The value
of such investment included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects
the fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the portfolio (43% at
April 30, 1999). The performance of the fund is directly affected by the
performance of the portfolio. The financial statements of the portfolio,
including the Schedule of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and
should be read in conjunction with the fund's financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the fund:

   a) Valuation of securities by the portfolio is discussed in Note 1a of the
      portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in
      this report.

   b) The fund records its share of net investment income, realized gain and
      loss and adjusts its investment in the portfolio each day. All the net
      investment income and realized gain and loss of the portfolio is allocated
      pro rata among the fund and other investors in the portfolio at the time
      of such determination.

   c) Substantially all the fund's net investment income and net realized
      capital gains, if any, are declared as dividends daily and paid monthly.
      Net short-term capital gains, if any, will be distributed in accordance
      with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"),
      as amended and may be reflected in the fund's daily dividends.
      Substantially all the realized net long-term capital gains, if any, are
      declared and paid annually, except that an additional capital gains
      distribution may be made in a given year to the extent necessary to avoid
      the imposition of federal excise tax on the fund.

   d) Expenses incurred by the trust with respect to any two or more funds in
      the trust are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each fund in
      the trust, except where allocations of direct expenses to each fund can
      otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are
      charged to that fund.

   e) The fund incurred organization expenses in the amount of $10,566. These
      costs were deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over
      a five year period from the commencement of operations.

   f) The fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes
      and intends to comply with the provisions of the Code, as amended,
      applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
      substantially all of its income, including net realized capital gains, if
      any, within the prescribed time periods. Accordingly, no provision for
      federal income or excise tax is necessary.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   g) For federal income tax purposes, the fund had a capital loss carryforward
      at October 31, 1998 of $7,292, which expires in 2006. To the extent that
      this capital loss is used to offset future capital gains, it is probable
      that gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

   a) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has retained Funds Distributor, Inc.
      ("FDI"), a registered broker-dealer, to serve as the co-administrator and
      distributor for the fund. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI
      and the trust on behalf of the fund, FDI provides administrative services
      necessary for the operations of the fund, furnishes office space and
      facilities required for conducting the business of the fund and pays the
      compensation of the fund's officers affiliated with FDI. The fund has
      agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its allocable share of an annual
      complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's out-of-pocket expenses. The
      amount allocable to the fund is based on the ratio of the fund's net
      assets to the aggregate net assets of the trust and certain other
      investment companies subject to similar agreements with FDI. For the six
      months ended April 30, 1999, the fee for these services amounted to
      $2,473.

   b) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has an Administrative Services Agreement
      (the "Services Agreement") with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company of New York
      ("Morgan"), a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan & Co. Incorporated
      ("J.P. Morgan"), under which Morgan is responsible for certain aspects of
      the administration and operation of the fund. Under the Services
      Agreement, the fund has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to its allocable
      share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is calculated based on
      the aggregate average daily net assets of the portfolio and the other
      portfolios in which the trust and the J.P. Morgan Funds invest (the
      "master portfolios") and J.P. Morgan Series Trust in accordance with the
      following annual schedule: 0.09% on the first $7 billion of their
      aggregate average daily net assets and 0.04% of their aggregate average
      daily net assets in excess of $7 billion less the complex-wide fees
      payable to FDI. The portion of this charge payable by the fund is
      determined by the proportionate share that its net assets bear to the net
      assets of the trust, the master portfolios, other investors in the master
      portfolios for which Morgan provides similar services, and J.P. Morgan
      Series Trust. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the fee for these
      services amounted to $42,254.

      In addition, J.P. Morgan has agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent
      necessary to maintain the total operating expenses of the fund, including
      the expenses allocated to the fund from the portfolio, at no more than the
      following respective percentages of average daily net assets of the fund
      for the periods indicated below:

<TABLE>
<S>                                                                  <C>
August 1, 1998 -- November 30, 1998................................      0.15%
December 1, 1998 -- Current........................................      0.20%
</TABLE>

      For the six months ended April 30, 1999, J.P. Morgan has agreed to
      reimburse the fund $345,382 for expenses under this agreement. The total
      operating expenses for the fund is a blended ratio which is based on
      reimbursements in effect for the six months ended April 30, 1999 and may
      not necessarily represent the actual amount incurred by the shareholder.
      This reimbursement arrangement can be changed or terminated at any time at
      the option of J.P. Morgan.

                                                                              13

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   c) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Shareholder Servicing Agreement
      with Morgan to provide account administration and personal account
      maintenance service to fund shareholders. The agreement provides for the
      fund to pay Morgan a fee for these services which is computed daily and
      paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of
      the fund. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the fee for these
      services amounted to $160,696.

   d) The trust, on behalf of the fund, has a Fund Services Agreement with
      Pierpont Group, Inc. ("Group") to assist the trustees in exercising their
      overall supervisory responsibilities for the trust's affairs. The trustees
      of the trust represent all the existing shareholders of Group. The fund's
      allocated portion of Group's costs in performing its services amounted to
      $3,331 for the six months ended April 30, 1999.

   e) An aggregate annual fee of $75,000 is paid to each trustee for serving as
      a trustee of the trust, the J.P. Morgan Funds, the master portfolios and
      J.P. Morgan Series Trust. The Trustees' Fees and Expenses shown in the
      financial statements represents the fund's allocated portion of these
      total fees and expenses. The trust's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
      also serves as Chairman of Group and receives compensation and employee
      benefits from Group in his role as Group's Chairman. The allocated portion
      of such compensation and benefits included in the Fund Services Fee shown
      in the financial statements was $700.

THE TREASURY MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
APRIL 30, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Treasury Money Market Portfolio (the "portfolio") is one of two subtrusts
("portfolios") comprising Series Portfolio II. Series Portfolio II is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no-load, open-end
management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of
the State of New York on January 9, 1997. The portfolio commenced operations on
July 7, 1997. The portfolio's investment objective is to provide high current
income consistent with the preservation of capital and same-day liquidity. The
Declaration of Trust permits the trustees to issue an unlimited number of
beneficial interests in the portfolio.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting
policies of the portfolio:

   a) Investments are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
      The amortized cost method of valuation values a security at its cost at
      the time of purchase and thereafter assumes a constant amortization to
      maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of
      fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instruments.

      The portfolio's custodian or designated subcustodians, as the case may be
      under tri-party repurchase agreements, takes possession of the collateral
      pledged for investments in repurchase agreements on behalf of the
      portfolio. It is the policy of the portfolio to value the underlying
      collateral daily on a mark-to-market basis to determine that the value,
      including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price plus
      accrued interest. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase,
      the portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
      proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under certain circumstances,
      in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement,
      realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject
      to legal proceedings.

   b) Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest
      income, which includes the amortization of premiums and discounts, if any,
      is recorded on an accrual basis. For financial and tax reporting purposes,
      realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot
      identification.

   c) Expenses incurred by Series Portfolio II with respect to any two or more
      portfolios in Series Portfolio II are allocated in proportion to the net
      assets of each portfolio in Series Portfolio II, except where allocations
      of direct expenses to each portfolio can otherwise be made fairly.
      Expenses directly attributable to a portfolio are charged to that
      portfolio.

   d) The portfolio intends to be treated as a partnership for federal income

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

   a) The portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with J.P. Morgan
      Investment Management Inc. ("JPMIM"), an affiliate of Morgan Guaranty
      Trust Company of New York ("Morgan"), a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P.
      Morgan & Co. Incorporated ("J.P. Morgan"). Under the terms of the
      agreement, the portfolio pays JPMIM at an annual rate of 0.20% of the
      portfolio's average daily net assets up to $1 billion and 0.10% on any
      excess over $1 billion. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, such fees
      amounted to $828,940.

   b) The portfolio has retained Funds Distributor, Inc. ("FDI"), a registered
      broker-dealer, to serve as the co-administrator and exclusive placement
      agent. Under a Co-Administration Agreement between FDI and the portfolio,
      FDI provides administrative services necessary for the operations of the
      portfolio, furnishes office space and facilities required for conducting
      the business of the portfolio and pays the compensation of the officers
      affiliated with FDI. The portfolio has agreed to pay FDI fees equal to its
      allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge of $425,000 plus FDI's
      out-of-pocket expenses. The amount allocable to the portfolio is based on
      the ratio of the portfolio's net assets to the aggregate net assets of the
      portfolio and certain other investment companies subject to similar
      agreements with FDI. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the fee for
      these services amounted to $4,035.

   c) The portfolio has an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Services
      Agreement") with Morgan under which Morgan is responsible for certain
      aspects of the administration and operation of the portfolio. Under the
      Services Agreement, the portfolio has agreed to pay Morgan a fee equal to
      its allocable share of an annual complex-wide charge. This charge is
      calculated based on the aggregate average daily net assets of the
      portfolio and other portfolios for which JPMIM acts as investment advisor
      (the "master portfolios") and J. P. Morgan Series Trust in accordance with
      the following annual schedule: 0.09% on the first $7 billion of their
      aggregate average daily net assets and 0.04% of their aggregate average
      daily net assets in excess of $7 billion less the complex-wide fees
      payable to FDI. The portion of this charge payable by the portfolio is
      determined by the proportionate share that its net assets bear to the net
      assets of the master portfolios, other investors in the master portfolios
      for which Morgan provides similar services, and J.P. Morgan Series Trust.
      For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the fee for these services
      amounted to $109,831.

                                                                              21
