There was an increase in the number of men, women, and children
treated in the year under report, the increase having occurred chiefly among
the male patients, among whom there was an excess of 9,983 above those of
1890. The number of female patients also increased by 1,661, and the number
of children by 1,057 patients.
7. From Statement IV given in the appendix, it will be seen that
a very large number of Hindu patients were treated at the hospitals during the
year, the increase under this class of patients being 7,297 as compared with
the previous-year, the figures being 122,932 against 115,635 in 1890. The
greater increase among Hindu patients as compared with Muhammadans
and other classes is difficult to account for, and the Superintendents offer no
reasons. Possibly the unhealthiness of the year and the markedly greater
liability of Hindus to certain diseases, especially cholera, may have something
to do with it. The increase among the Muhammadans was 2,457, among
Eurasians 2,339, while those grouped under Other Races show an increase of
1,625. The increase at the Medical College Hospital among Eurasian out-door
patients is attributed by the Principal to the growing popularity of this depart-
ment among this section of the community. There has been a diminution in
the total number of Europeans treated at the hospitals. The decrease took
place in the Medical College and Campbell Hospitals and the Park Street Dis-
pensary. The Superintendents, except Dr. Birch, explain as follows:—Dr.
Sanders, that the falling off at the Park Street Dispensary was due to
less prevalence of influenza, and Dr. Mackenzie, that the diminution in the
