No. 3032.
FROM COLONEL R. MACRAE, M.B., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal,
To THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF BENGAL,
MUNICIPAL DEPARTMENT.
Dated Calcutta, the 3rd April 1907.
SIR,
IN accordance with the Government of Bengal order No. 2315,
Medical, dated the 12th August 1901, I have the honour to submit the annual
statistical returns of the Lunatic Asylums in Bengal for the year 1906, with
brief notes as under.
2. As remarked in the last Triennial Report, the Cuttack Asylum was
closed during the year under review, and its inmates, numbering 36 males and
one female, were, on the 30th March 1906, removed to the Berhampore Asylum
without any mishap. The statements in the Appendix now show figures of
three Asylums instead of four as in 1905. Another important and desirable
change which took place in the administration of asylums in this Province was
the appointment of a separate Medical Officer as Superintendent of the
Berhampore combined asylum, viz., Major C. J. Robertson-Milne, I.M.S.,
who has had experience of Asylum management elsewhere. He took charge
of the institution on the 29th October 1906, relieving the Civil Surgeon of the
Asylum work. On his arrival in Bengal he was at first employed on special
duty in inspecting the existing asylums, the site and the designs already drawn
up of the proposed Native Central asylum at Ranchi with a view to the final
preparation and adoption of suitable plans for the new buildings at that place.
He submitted a valuable note containing his remarks and suggestions, which
were considered at a Conference of officials of the Imperial and Local Govern-
ments held by His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor at Belvedere with the result
that fresh plans have been prepared and will soon be submitted for the sanction
of the Secretary of State.
Statement I.
3. The number of lunatics on 1st January 1906 was 843;* 211 were
admitted during the year (including 23 re-admis-
sions), 133 were discharged, while death claimed
85, and 836 remained in the asylums at the end of the year, against 844 in
1905. The proportion per cent. of criminal lunatics to the total population
on the 31st December of each year was 47.96 and 47.51, respectively.
Although there was no increase in the total asylum population, there was
some want of room at Bhawanipur, referred to in paragraph 8 of last year's
report. The male division at Patna was also overcrowded during the year
under review. This necessitated the transfer of six lunatics from the former,
and 25 from Patna to Berhampore. At Patna one of the work-sheds is being-
converted into a sleeping barrack, which will add to the capacity of the asylum.
Admissions were fewer by 7, being 188 against 195 in 1905. The
numbers sent to Berhampore from Calcutta and the 24-Parganas again show
a decrease, being 71 against 84 in 1905. The number re-admitted showed little
variation,—23 against 24 in 1905. Most of them were, as usual, criminal
lunatics returned to the asylums after trial. Five were received back from
* On the 31st December 1906 there were 844 lunatics ; 1 lunatic was discharged from the Cuttack
asylum before it was closed.
( 5 )
The daily average number was 38.10 against 37.47 in 1905, the total
numbers dealt with being 60 and 55 respectively. There were 3 deaths
against 3 in the previous year. The total expenditure was Rs. 26,436 against
Rs. 23,588 in 1905, the cost per head being Rs. 693-13-8 and Rs. 629-8-3
respectively.
Deducting the receipts from paying patients, the cost per lunatic was
Rs. 399-2-6 against Rs. 287-7-3 in 1905.
14. All the Asylums were inspected by me during 1906.
15. The following officers held charge of these institutions during the
year under notice.
Bhawanipur.—Captain J. C. H. Leicester, I.M.S., was in charge throughout
the year.
Patna.—Major B. C. Oldham, I.M.S., from 1st January to 16th July.
Captain J. Masson, I.M.S., from 17th July to 23rd August and Major B. H.
Deare, I.M.S., from 24th August to the end of the year.
Berhampore.—Major A. H. Nott, I.M.S., from 1st January to 8th May.
Captain E. E. Waters, I.M.S., from 9th May to 28th October, and Major C. J.
Robertson-Milne, I.M.S., from 29th October to the close of the year. The
Cuttack Asylum, until it was amalgamated with the Berhampore Asylum, was in
charge of Major C. R. Stevens, I.M.S., from 1st January to 30th March 1906.
I am glad to be able to report that the lunatic asylums were judiciously
managed by these officers during the year under review.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
R. MACRAE, M.B., COL., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal.
