          As set forth in its Prospectus, the annual rate at
which fees under Dreyfus Short-Term Income Fund's 12b-1 Plan are
payable is .20 of 1% of the value of the Fund's average daily
net assets.  This fee has remained the same since the Fund's
inception, and no change is being recommended.  The Fund Exhibit
in the proxy materials, including the Service Plan attached
thereto, which inadvertently listed a different fee amount, is
revised accordingly.
