Report Highlights
Summit Income Funds
o Interest rates moved in a narrow range until July, then plummeted
when Russia's economic crisis prompted renewed demand for the safety of
U.S. Treasuries.
o The dividend yield for the Summit Cash Reserves Fund declined as
rates fell, but the fund posted better gains than its peer group average.
o Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund relied on corporate holdings with good
yields and a comparatively long duration to outperform its peer group
average.
o A strategy that limited prepayment risk helped the Summit GNMA Fund
outpace its peer group average.
o We expect slower economic growth and lower interest rates in the
coming year.
Fellow Shareholders
The investing background was turbulent for the six and 12 months ended October
31, 1998, and the domestic economy showed wear after absorbing a year's worth of
crises in Southeast Asia and Russia. These trends heightened investors' taste
for relatively low-risk investments, especially short-term instruments and
high-quality bonds, such as Treasuries. The Summit Income Funds' returns were
moderate in this environment, but consistently outperformed their peer group
averages.
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Over the course of the period, global events overshadowed domestic economic and
financial market developments. The lingering effects of last year's Southeast
Asia collapse were evident in weakening corporate earnings reports and a growing
external trade deficit, while the financial crisis in Russia this past August
heightened investor discomfort with higher-risk investments. Economists, as well
as the Federal Reserve, noted a worrisome trend toward global deflation. These
concerns caused sharp losses in multinational financial services stocks,
impaired worldwide market liquidity, and sparked a global credit crunch. Even
though U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) growth was steady and inflation
remained low, market volatility in the U.S. increased, and investors became
highly risk averse.

The Federal Reserve responded to the troubled atmosphere by reducing short-term
interest rates a total of 50 basis points in September and October, and another
25 basis points in November, after the period ended. The moves were intended to
help ease the worldwide credit crunch while also improving consumer and investor
confidence at home. These cuts, combined with the general investor preference
for lower-risk investments, prompted a strong rally in high-quality bonds.
Preparing For The Year 2000
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Year 2000 draws closer every day, and it holds special meaning beyond the
arrival of a new millennium. The issue for investors is that many computer
programs throughout the world use two digits instead of four to identify the
year and may assume the next century starts with 1900. If these programs are not
modified, they will not be able to correctly handle the century change when the
year changes from "99" to "00" on January 1, 2000, and they will no longer be
able to perform necessary functions. The Year 2000 issue affects all companies
and organizations. T. Rowe Price has been taking steps to assure that its
computer systems and processes are capable of functioning in the Year 2000.
Detailed plans for remediation efforts have been developed and are currently
being executed.
OUR PLAN OF ACTION
We began to address these issues several years ago by requiring that all new
systems process and store four-digit years. We plan to complete all
reprogramming efforts for the major application systems, including business
applications required to service our customers and processing infrastructure
necessary to ensure the integrity of customer data and investments, by December
31, 1998, leaving a full 12 months for system testing. Because we exchange data
electronically with customers and vendors, we are working with them to assess
the adequacy of their own compliance efforts. Our goal is to ensure the
continuation of the same level of service to all our mutual fund shareholders
and clients after December 31, 1999.
We are asking all vendors and companies we do business with for a Year 2000
compliance status, with the expectation that some organizations will not be able
to modify their interface files prior to December 31, 1999. Our goal is to
identify any noncompliant files so that we can implement alternative solutions.
In addition, we are scheduling tests for critical vendors and companies that
claim Year 2000 compliance to ensure that time-related data and calculations
function properly as we move into the next century.
SMOOTH TRANSITION PLANNED
We believe our programs and initiatives will provide a smooth transition into
the next millennium. We are assessing all systems providing products or services
to our retail mutual fund shareholders, retirement plan sponsors, and
participants, and we are taking steps to modify them where necessary for the
Year 2000. Our plan provides time to develop solutions for all noncompliant
systems and data files from customers or vendors.
The Securities Industry Association (SIA) is coordinating Year 2000 testing to
assure that securities markets, clearing corporations, depositories, and third
party service providers can send, receive, and process files and transactions
accurately. In late July 1998, the SIA completed a beta test of Year 2000
readiness. The test was considered successful in terms of transactions completed
and will serve as the basis for the SIA's industry-wide approach. During October
1998, T. Rowe Price completed its beta test of Year 2000 readiness with the SIA
and is ready for the industry-wide test that is scheduled for March and April
1999.
For a more detailed discussion of our Year 2000 effort, as well as continuing
updates on our progress, please check our Web site (www.troweprice.com).
Treasuries were the chief beneficiaries of the trends toward lower rates and
higher investor demand for safety, with the yield on 30-year Treasuries falling
to a new low in October. Corporate bonds did less well, although shorter-term,
higher-quality issues provided relatively attractive performance. Falling rates
were more problematic for mortgage-backed bonds, which struggle when home
mortgage prepayments increase. Lower yields on cash instruments reflected the
drop in short-term rates.
SUMMIT CASH RESERVES FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/98 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Reserves Fund 2.66% 5.35%
Lipper Money Market
Funds Average 2.43 4.91
The sharp decline in interest rates toward the end of the period reduced money
market fund returns in general, reflected in your fund by a drop in dividend
yield. Although we were able to keep dividends per share for the six months
ending October 31 unchanged from the previous six-month period, the fund's
seven-day compound dividend yield slipped to 5.16% from 5.38% on April 30 and
5.41% one year ago. Fortunately, a relatively low expense ratio and effective
management decisions helped your fund maintain a significant edge over the
Lipper Money Market Funds Average for both the 6- and 12-month periods.
As rates fell, we sought to slow the pace at which we would have to reinvest
maturing, higher-yielding holdings in issues with lower yields. We maintained a
strategy, developed earlier in the year, of owning sufficient issues with
relatively long maturities to minimize the decline in the fund's yield. The
fund's weighted average maturity throughout the last half-year was in the
neighborhood of 80 days, and ended the period at 81 days, up from 79 six months
ago.
In view of the heightened volatility in global financial markets, we redirected
sector exposure by reducing Eurodollar negotiable CDs (primarily issued by large
international banking concerns) from 12% to 4%. We also cut exposure to other
finance and credit sector instruments (included in the table following this
letter as part of the "all other" category) by six percentage points. We used
the proceeds to increase our holdings in high-quality, collateralized
asset-backed commercial paper. Since money market issuance is often dominated by
the securities of financial institutions, the recent growth in availability of
asset-backed commercial paper has come at an opportune time for portfolio
managers, like us, wishing to diversify. The fund's weighted average credit
quality remained high as it continued to hold only first-tier money market
instruments.
During the period, swap-related products including floating rate notes also
became less expensive relative to other securities. Accordingly, we increased
our floating rate holdings from 8% to 14% when their yields became notably more
attractive than those of fixed rate issues.
SUMMIT LIMITED-TERM BOND FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/98 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limited-Term Bond Fund 4.76% 7.97%
Lipper Short Intermediate
Investment-Grade
Debt Funds Average 4.11 6.97
Your fund posted a strong return of 4.76% during the six-month period, well
ahead of the 4.11% gain of the Lipper Short Inter-mediate Investment-Grade Debt
Funds Average. That performance lifted the fund's 12-month results to 7.97%-a
percentage point better than its peer group. A strategy that emphasized
higher-yielding corporate bonds and longer maturities, combined with a
relatively low expense ratio, contributed to the superior performance. As
interest rates fell during the last half-year, the fund's six-month dividends
per share remained steady even though its dividend yield slipped from 6.24% at
last report to 5.88% at period's end as a result of share price appreciation.
The fund posted good results despite a heavy concentration in corporate bonds,
which did not perform as well as Treasuries when interest rates fell and
investors rushed to relatively safe investments. As mentioned in the semiannual
shareholder letter, we trimmed the fund's corporate holdings from roughly 60% of
assets at the end of 1997 to near 55% during the early part of 1998 and
maintained exposure at about this level throughout the past six months. This
positioning helped protect returns from widening yield spreads (between
Treasuries and corporates), as did the fund's solid, AA- average credit quality.
As the period ended, we selectively added some AA and BBB bonds with attractive
yields that we felt had been oversold. A 3.1-year duration-somewhat longer than
the Lipper peer group average-bolstered fund performance as rates fell.
Quality Diversification
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund
AAA AA A BBB BB B and Below
34.5 13 26 22 3 1.5
Within the corporate sector, industry allocations remained generally unchanged,
with one important exception. Given the heightened risk in the global financial
markets and their negative effect on financial companies, we reduced the
portfolio's exposure to banking and finance sector securities from 17% six
months ago to 13% at October 31. We shifted the assets to issues in the less
economically sensitive consumer products and services sector.
We also made a change in the noncorporate-bond segment of the portfolio when it
became clear that interest rates were heading lower. As falling rates caused
mortgage-backed securities to underperform, we reduced exposure to the sector
from 18% to 14% in recent months and increased holdings of asset-backed
securities, whose cash flows are more predictable and less sensitive to falling
rates.
We perceive the U.S. economic environment as generally favorable and look for
flat or declining interest rates. Accordingly, we expect to maintain a high
weighting in corporate bonds as well as a slightly long duration compared with
our Lipper peer group. Should the global environment worsen and the likelihood
of a recession increase, we would probably trim corporate holdings further and
increase holdings of asset-backed federal agency and U.S. Treasury securities.
SUMMIT GNMA FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/98 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GNMA Fund 3.77% 7.10%
Lipper GNMA Funds Average 3.49 6.77
When compared with the strong gains of Treasuries and even some corporate bonds,
mortgage-backed securities had an uninspiring 12 months. The last six months
were particularly difficult. A generally defensive investment strategy, however,
helped your fund post gains of 3.77% and 7.10% for the 6- and 12-month periods,
respectively, handily outperforming the Lipper GNMA Funds Average for both time
frames. Overall, the fund's price per share is up $0.05 over the last six
months, to $9.87. Dividends over the last six months were unchanged at $0.32,
but the overall dividend yield decreased over both periods because the price
rose.
Your fund's returns have been heavily influenced by the continual drop in
interest rates during the last two years. Over the past 12 months, intermediate
and long interest rates fell at least one percentage point, while short rates
fell about 1.5 percentage points, causing the yield curve (which charts the
yields for different maturities) to steepen. In the same period, 30-year
mortgage rates fell from 7.20% to 6.83%, as measured by Freddie Mac's Primary
Mortgage Market Survey, briefly hitting 6.49% in early October-a six-year low.
Rates dropped most sharply in August through October, raising prepayment risk
for mortgage-backed investors. (Prepayments can negatively affect total return
when homeowners refinance their high-rate mortgages, causing premium-priced
mortgage-backed bonds to be cashed out at par. In that case, the premium and the
higher yield are lost.) This growing risk, along with the dislocation in world
financial markets, caused mortgages to underperform Treasuries in the last three
months of the period.
The mortgage-backed market saw a refinancing wave in April of 1998, and another
wave is expected in November. Fortunately, we have been emphasizing mortgage
securities that are less vulnerable to prepayments. These holdings include
project loans, construction loans, and collateralized mortgage obligations
(CMOs), which either structurally or legally are designed to prevent early
prepayments. These securities did their job in April-the increase in prepayments
received by the fund was minimal-and we expect similar results with upcoming
refinancings. As always the average credit quality of the portfolio remained
very high at AAA.
OUTLOOK
While there was some negative news and much concern about the state of the U.S.
economy during the period, there was little strong evidence that a recession is
at hand. Indeed, we expect 1999 to be marked by slower GDP growth-perhaps below
2%-but not a recession. This slowing will place some pressure on corporate
profits, but the overall economic climate should remain generally favorable for
business. The Fed is also likely to remain accommodative given the current low
rate of inflation and the high level of economic uncertainty.
It is unclear, however, if Treasuries can continue to dominate the fixed income
markets as they have through most of 1998. If interest rates trend lower,
investors can expect their money market yields to taper off further.
Mortgage-backed bonds will also continue to be plagued by refinancings. In the
absence of recession, intermediate-term corporate bonds should offer solid
returns at reasonable risk.

Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Summit Income Funds, Inc. (the corporation) is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Summit Cash Reserves Fund (the Cash
Reserves Fund), the Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund (the Limited-Term Bond Fund),
and the Summit GNMA Fund (the GNMA Fund), diversified open-end management
investment companies, are the three portfolios established by the corporation
and commenced operations on October 29, 1993.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for the investment company industry; these
principles may require the use of estimates by fund management.
Valuation Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market.
Except for securities held by the Cash Reserves Fund, investments in securities
originally issued with maturities of one year or more are stated at fair value
as furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent
pricing service, which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality,
coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make markets
in such securities. Securities held by the Limited-Term Bond and GNMA Funds with
original maturities of less than one year are stated at fair value, which is
determined by using a matrix system that establishes a value for each security
based on money market yields. Securities held by the Cash Reserves Fund are
valued at amortized cost.
Investments in mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share
of the mutual fund on the day of valuation.
Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value
as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of that
fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
Premiums and Discounts Premiums and discounts on debt securities, other than
mortgage-backed securities, are amortized for both financial reporting and tax
purposes. Premiums and discounts on mortgage-backed securities are recognized
upon principal repayment as gain or loss for financial reporting purposes and as
ordinary income for tax purposes.
Other Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are
reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are
recorded by each fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations
and may differ from those determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term securities,
for the year ended October 31, 1998, were as follows:
Limited-Term
Bond Fund GNMA Fund
U.S. government securities

Other securities
Purchases 19,410,000 1,997,000
Sales 9,829,000 31,000
NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
No provision for federal income taxes is required since each fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its
taxable income. The Limited-Term Bond Fund has unused realized capital loss
carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $1,367,000, of which $808,000
expires in 2002, $354,000 in 2003, and $205,000 thereafter through 2005. Capital
loss carryforwards utilized by Limited-Term Bond Fund in 1998 amounted to
$209,000. The GNMA Fund has unused realized capital loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of $447,000, of which $173,000 expires in 2003,
$142,000 in 2004, and $132,000 in 2005. Capital loss carryforwards utilized by
GNMA Fund in 1998 amounted to $14,000. Each fund intends to retain gains
realized in future periods that may be offset by available capital loss
carryforwards.
In order for each fund's capital accounts and distributions to shareholders to
reflect the tax character of certain transactions, the following
reclassifications were made during the year ended October 31, 1998. The results
of operations and net assets were not affected by the increases/(decreases) to
these accounts.
Limited-Term
Bond Fund GNMA Fund
Undistributed net investment income $ (59,000) $ (101,000)
Undistributed net realized gain 67,000 151,000
Paid-in-capital (8,000) (50,000)
At October 31, 1998, the aggregate costs of investments for the Cash Reserves,
Limited-Term Bond, and GNMA Funds for federal income tax purposes was
substantially the same as for financial reporting and totaled $1,901,669,000,
$41,973,000, and $47,213,000, respectively. For the Cash Reserves Fund,
amortized cost is equivalent to value. For the Limited-Term Bond and GNMA Funds,
net unrealized gain (loss) on investments was as follows:
Limited-Term
Bond Fund GNMA Fund
Appreciated investments $ 861,000 $ 1,381,000
Depreciated investments (133,000) (179,000)
Net unrealized gain (loss) $ 728,000 $ 1,202,000
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment management and administrative agreement between each fund and T.
Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the manager) provides for an all-inclusive annual
fee, of which $875,000, $28,000, and $8,000 were payable at October 31, 1998, by
the the Cash Reserves, Limited-Term Bond, and GNMA Funds, respectively. The fee,
computed daily and paid monthly, is equal to 0.45% of average daily net assets
for the Cash Reserves Fund, 0.55% of average daily net assets for the
Limited-Term Bond Fund, and 0.60% of average daily net assets for the GNMA Fund.
Pursuant to the agreement, investment management, shareholder servicing,
transfer agency, accounting, and custody services are provided to each fund, and
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses are paid
directly by each fund.
Additionally, the Cash Reserves Fund is one of several T. Rowe Price-sponsored
mutual funds (underlying funds) in which the T. Rowe Price Spectrum Funds
(Spectrum) may invest. Spectrum does not invest in the underlying funds for the
purpose of exercising management or control. Expenses associated with the
operation of Spectrum are borne by each underlying fund to the extent of
estimated savings to it and in proportion to the average daily value of its
shares owned by Spectrum, pursuant to special servicing agreements between and
among Spectrum, the underlying funds, T. Rowe Price, and, in the case of T. Rowe
Price Spectrum International, Rowe Price-Fleming International. Spectrum Income
Fund held approximately 1.2% of the outstanding shares of the Cash Reserves Fund
at October 31, 1998. For the year then ended, the fund was allocated $88,000 of
Spectrum expenses.
The Limited-Term Bond and GNMA Funds may invest in the Reserve Investment Fund
and Government Reserve Investment Fund (collectively, the Reserve Funds),
open-end management investment companies managed by T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc. The Reserve and Government Reserve Funds are offered as cash management
options only to mutual funds and other accounts managed by T. Rowe Price and its
affiliates and are not available to the public. The Reserve Funds pay no

Report of Independent Accountants
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price Summit Funds, Inc.
and Shareholders of Summit Cash Reserves Fund,
Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund, and Summit GNMA Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the
financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Summit Cash Reserves Fund, Summit Limited-Term Bond
Fund, and Summit GNMA Fund (comprising T. Rowe Price Summit Funds, Inc.,
hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at October 31, 1998, and the results
of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets and
the financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial
statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which
included confirmation of securities at October 31, 1998 by correspondence
with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
