SURGEON-GENERAL ' S OFFICE,
HER MAJESTY 'S FORCES,
MILITARY DEPT., GOVT. OF MADRAS,
OOTACAMUND, 29 th August 1888.
No. 2321.
From
SURGEON-GENERAL SIR J. A. HANBURY, M.B., K.C.B.,
Her Majesty's Forces in Madras,
To
THE SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT,
Military Department,
Ootacamund.
SIR,—I have the honor to submit, for the information of Government, the
report on the working of the following Military Lock Hospitals in the Madras
Command for the year 1887 :—
First Class.
Bangalore Lock Hospital.
Belgaum do.
Kamptee do.
Secunderabad do.
Second Class.
Bellary Lock Hospital.
Cannanore do.
St. Thomas' Mount do.
Wellington do.
2. Registrations.— The average number of registered women at each station
where the Lock Hospital system was in
force for the past two years, is shown
in the table in the margin. The num-
bers have declined at all stations, except
Bellary, Cannanore, and St. Thomas'
Mount. The two former show a con-
siderable increase, due to the fact that
the Lock Hospitals were only open in
these stations from the 13th March and
15th July, respectively, in 1886, while
they were in existence during the whole
of the year under report. The large de-
crease at Secunderabad is owing to the
Cantonment Magistrate having removed the names of applicants from the register
on the plea of marriage, leaving the station, &c.
3. Surveillance. —Inspections were held weekly, and the average attendance at
them at most stations compares very
favorably with that of the previous year.
The statement in the margin gives the
ratio per mille for two years of average
number of women who attended these
inspections. The women who happened
to be under treatment in hospital on
the days of these inspections are not
included. The attendance at the inspec-
tions atBangalore and Bellary is reported
as very irregular.

ANNUAL REPORT ON THE
4. Number of women admitted into hospital at these inspections.—The figures
for the past two years are shown in the
marginal table. The admissions at Ban-
galore and Secunderabad were consider-
ably less than for the previous year,
while there has been an increase at St.
Thomas' Mount. The increase at Bel-
lary and Cannanore is accounted for by
the Lock Hospitals at both these stations
having only been open for a part of the
year 1886.
5. Statistics of sickness among the women.—The following table shows the
numbers treated, including remained, the average daily sick, and the average stay
of each case in hospital during the past five years :—

In estimating the comparative value of the above table for the five years,
it must be noted that the Lock Hospitals at Bellary and Cannanore were closed
during nine months in 1885, and the former for two-and-a-half months and the
latter for six-and-a-half months in 1886 ; also that the statistics of Belgaum
have only been included in the figures for 1886 and 1887. Omitting Bellary and
Cannanore, we have for 1887 number treated, including remained, 1,974, average
daily sick 142 . 51, and average stay in hospital 26 . 35, compared with 2,012, 139.15,
and 25 .24, respectively, for 1886, or a decrease in 1887 of 38· in total treated and
an increase of 3 .36 in average daily sick, and of 1 . 11 in average number of days in
hospital of each patient.
6. Admissions into Lock Hospital for primary syphilis.— The statistics for the
past five years are given in the following table :—

The decrease in the number of cases of primary syphilis is, in a great
measure, owing to Medical officers having been instructed not to return as primary
syphilis certain cases which were formerly included under that head. Excluding
Bellary and Cannanore, we get a total of 249 admissions for primary syphilis
and a total of 1,830 admissions for all causes for 1887, against 471 and 1,870,
respectively, for 1886, giving a ratio of cases of primary syphilis per 1,000 of
total. admissions of 136·06 for 1887 compared with 251 . 87 for 1886.

The table shows a decided decrease in the admissions for primary syphilis
among prostitutes compared with those among European Troops, and, as compared
with the relations for previous years, and may, to some extent, be accounted for by
the known prevalence of clandestine prostitution. It is to be expected also that
admissions for primary syphilis should be comparatively rare among women who
have long carried on prostitution.

The increase observable in the above table in the year under report as com-
pared with 1886 is mainly owing to the statistics being affected by certain diseases,
such as " ulcer of penis," when of venereal origin, being included in the figures
for the present year, while last year such diseases were excluded..

The ratio of admissions at Kamptee are shown to have been nearly five times
greater than in the previous year, while Belgaum and Secunderabad exhibit a con-
siderable increase. The table is, however, considerably affected by the exclusion
from the returns of 1886 of certain cases which are shown as venereal in the
figures for 1887.

regiments at this station. Out of an average strength of 257 . 16 women, there
were 715 admissions for venereal ; of these, only 90 were for primary syphilis, the
remainder being for gonorrhœa, ulcer of vaginæ and other venereal causes. The
Medical Officer reports the attendance at inspections as having been regular.
Thirty-seven women were registered and 63 had their names removed on the plea
of marriage, leaving the station, &c., but it is believed many of them are still
carrying on prostitution in the station or its vicinity.
17. St. Thomas' Mount.—The ratio of admissions, per 1,000 of strength,
among British Troops at this station, has been 286.68 compared with 250 .00 in
1886. The number of cases of primary syphilis was only 5, and there were none
of secondary syphilis, while the previous year, primary syphilis caused 33 and
secondary syphilis 23 admissions. There were only 47 admissions for venereal
among the prostitutes out of an average strength of 33, and of these, 2 were for
primary and 7 for secondary syphilis. The women were reported as being regular
in attendance at examinations.
18. Wellington.— The ratio of admissions at Wellington, per 1,000 of strength,
was 364.26 compared with 375·00 the previous year. Of these, 74 were for
primary and 124 for secondary syphilis. But many of the cases of primary and
nearly all the cases of secondary syphilis are reported to have had their origin
in the plains. There were 119 admissions among an average strength of 29.91
prostitutes compared with 103 for 1886 out of a strength of 31 . 95 ; of these, 34
were for primary and 1 for secondary syphilis.
19. General Remarks.—The noteworthy feature in the working of the Lock
Hospitals during the past year has been the decrease in the admissions among
British Troops for venereal diseases at Bellary, and particularly at Cannanore,
as compared with the periods during which these institutions were closed during
1886. The effect has been especially noticeable at Cannanore, where, in 1886,
when the Lock Hospital was closed from 1st January to 15th July, there were 146
admissions for venereal during these six-and-half months out of an average strength
of 413, while during the year under report, there were only 44 admissions for the
whole year out of an average strength of 155. These figures would seem to afford
additional evidence as to the value of the Lock Hospital system in checking the
prevalence of a disease—the consequences of which to British Troops serving in
India are so deplorable—and there can be little doubt that, were the Contagious
Diseases Act more efficiently carried out, much better results would be arrived at.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
J. A. HANBURY, M.B.,
Surgeon-General, Her Majesty's Forces.
