Statement VI.
Types of insanity.
7. Mania gave 117 towards the total admissions; melancholia forty-
eight ; idiocy eight; dementia seven; delusional insanity
three and mental stupor one.
Statement VII.
Causes.
8. As regards causation, ninety-one of the cases are attributed to physical
and fourteen to moral causes, in eighty-six cases the cause
could not be assigned. Of the cases attributed to physical
causes, the abuse of intoxicating drugs and spirits was responsible for forty-
seven ; epilepsy seventeen ; congenital diseases eight; over-study six ; fever five ;
exposure to heat and hereditary predisposition, three each ; and child-birth and
injury to the brain one each.
Statement VIII.
Cash account.
9. From this statement it will be seen that the receipts under " value
of stores " and " miscellaneous," which were, respectively,
Rs. 2,755-2-2 and Rs. 2,831-8-3 in 1906, rose to
Rs. 3,277-9-4 and Rs. 2,908-5-1. On the other hand, receipts from paying patients
declined ; the income from this source fluctuates according to the ability of patients
to pay for their maintenance. The increase of Rs. 9,881, over the figures of
1906, in the amount of Public Works Department charges, was chiefly due to
the cost of materials, etc., purchased for the sanctioned additions to the male
asylum, while the increase under the head of cost of diet resulted from the
great rise in the prices of food supplies during the autumn. There has been
a heavy increase under establishment, viz., Rs. 5,651-15-11, due to the higher
rate of pay drawn by the present incumbent of the office of superintendent; to
the entertainment of extra keepers to supervise the increased number of patients,
and to the higher salaries paid to the assistant matrons.
Statement X.
Manufactures.
10. The manufactures of the asylum continued to progress satisfactorily.
There was an increase of Rs. 1,058-14-9 in the profits
during the year, as compared with 1906.
11. Major G. F. W. Ewens held charge of the asylum throughout the
year. He is not only an alienist of long experience, but his patience and
kindness are inexhaustible. I have had many opportunities of seeing Major
Ewens among his patients, and I have been greatly struck by his sympathetic
treatment of them and by his intimate knowledge of their individual history and
idiosyncrasies.
