males and 17 females. There was thus no overcrowding, as the asylum can
accommodate 23 males and 19 females. There were only 8 admissions to
hospital, and the general health of the inmates was good. The total expendi-
ture rose from Rs. 21,269 to Rs. 21,772, but towards this Government contri-
buted only Rs. 4,218 against Rs. 11,635 in the previous year, and the average
cost of each lunatic fell from Rs. 369 to Rs. 114. The reason for this was the
larger sum realized from paying patients, Rs. 17,543 against Rs. 9,424 in the
preceding year, an improvement mainly due to the exertions of the Deputy
Superintendent, Mr. Lawton.
13. The thanks of the Lieutenant-Governor are due to Surgeon-Colonel
Newman for his clear and concise report, and to the various Superintendents
for their efficient management of the asylums under them during the past year.

REPORT
ON THE
LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL
FOR THE
YEAR
1898.
No. 3557.
FROM COLONEL T. H. HENDLEY, C.I.E., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal,
To THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF BENGAL,
FINANCIAL AND MUNICIPAL DEPARTMENTS.
Dated Calcutta, the 14th March 1899.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit the Annual Report on the Lunatic
Asylums in Bengal for the year 1898, together with the usual annual
statements in the Appendix.
2. Population.—The following abstract of statement No. I gives the
main facts as to the population of the five asylums for natives for 1898, and
compares them with the figures of the ten preceding years:—
LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
3
There was a decrease of 42 in the number of admissions, of 1 in the number
improved, 5 in the number not improved, 8 in the number discharged other-
wise, 17 in the number of deaths, while an increase of 7 is noticeable in the
number cured. The total number remaining in the asylums at the end of the
year was 13 less than in 1897, viz., 911 against 924 in 1897, the latter being
the correct figure for that year.
The number of criminal lunatics remaining at the end of the year was
477, or 52.36 per cent. of the total asylum population, against 485 and 52.54,
respectively, in 1897.
3. Admissions—Were fewer by 39 in 1898 as compared with the previous
year. The numbers admitted into the different asylums were as follows:—
Dullunda ... ... ...
Dacca ... ... ...
Patna
...
...
...
Cuttack ... ...
Berhampore ... ...

The decrease occurred at Dullunda and Berhampore, but the Superinten-
dents of these asylums can assign no satisfactory reason for it. On the
other hand, Patna shows an increase of 9, the Superintendent explaining
it to be due to the effect of famine, which, he says, either operated as the
direct cause of mental aberration, or deprived the relatives of the lunatics
of the means of maintaining them privately. This explanation seems to be
inconsistent when it is remembered that the admissions at Patna were fewer
in 1897, the year in which the severity of the famine was felt. As regards
the small increases at Dacca and Cuttack, no explanation is called for.
4. Re-admissions—Numbered 15, or 3 fewer than in 1897. The figures
for each asylum are shown below:—

Of the 4 re-admitted into Dullunda, 2 were sent back to the asylum
after trial, one was received back from the Alipore Jail, having had a relapse
after 5 years and 2 months. One was a non-criminal lunatic, who was
re-admitted after having been discharged cured 11 months and 23 days
ago.
As regards the 4 re-admissions at Dacca, 2 were sent back to the asylum
after trial, and 2 were non-criminals who had been discharged cured, but were
received back into the asylum, one after three and-a-half years, and the other
after 9 years and 10 months.
Of the 4 at Patna, 2 were sent back to the asylum after trial, and 2 were
non-criminals who had been discharged cured from the asylum—one in March
1876, and the other in May 1893.
Of the three cases at Berhampore, two were criminals returned to the
asylum after trial, and one was a non-criminal lunatic, who was discharged
cured on the 29th March 1886, and received back on the 25th May 1898.

than those of the previous year :—

The increase at Dullunda and Berhampore is trifling. The Cuttack
Asylum, which had 6 discharges in 1897, showed none in 1898. The Super-
intendent says none were fit for discharge. Dacca shows a decrease of 3,
which is said to be due to the fact that while in 1897 3 lunatics were
transferred to jail none became qualified for transfer in 1898.
6. Recoveries to strength.—The following table shows the percentage of
recoveries to average strength:—

The number of recoveries and the percentage shows a marked increase at
Dullunda, as the majority of the recoveries occurred among acute cases admit-
ted in 1898. The proportion of recoveries at Dacca was slightly less than in
1897, but the Superintendent says that as a matter of fact there were more
recoveries in 1898, but these cases could not be discharged until the orders of
Government were received. There were 11 such cases at the end of 1898, 3
of whom have since been discharged. If these recoveries are taken into account,
the percentage will be 12.8 instead of 7.94. At Cuttack there were no recoveries
in 1898 and 2 in 1897, or 7.38 per cent. But the numbers in this asylum are
too small for statistical comparison. Berhampore had the same number of
recoveries as in 1897, but with a smaller daily average strength in 1898, the per-
centage shows a slight increase.
7. Accommodation.—It will be seen from the following table that accom-
modation remained unchanged and was everywhere sufficient:—

21. The total expenditure shows a decrease of Rs. 12,011-4-5 as compared
with that of the previous year. The amount drawn from the treasury,
inclusive of the amounts received from paying patients, was Rs. 85,973-14-3,
or Rs. 6,840-6-11 less than in 1897. The value of articles received from the
Manufacturing Department, less cost of raw materials, shows a decrease of
Rs. 601-3-9, and the book account with the Public Works Department,
Stationery Office, and the Medical Store Depôt was Rs. 4,569-9-9 less than
in 1897. The decrease in the total expenditure occurred under all heads,
except bedding and clothing, contingencies proper, rates and taxes, and printed
forms and stationery.
22. Superintendence—Cost Rs. 868-4-7 less than in the previous year.
The decrease occurred at Dullunda only. In this asylum there was no whole-
time Deputy Superintendent throughout the year, as the permanent incum-
bent, who was drawing Rs. 250 per mensem, was deputed to plague duty, and
the Deputy Superintendent of the Bhawanipur Asylum held charge of the
Dullunda Asylum, in addition to his own duties, on a charge allowance
which was, under the orders of Government, increased during the year from
Rs. 75 to Rs. 100 per mensem. The figures in the other asylums remained
unchanged.

23. Establishment proper-Cost Rs. 18,697-2-10, or Rs. 1,319-10-8 less
than in the previous year. The decrease was shared by all the asylums and
was mainly due to the discontinuance during the year of the compensation
allowance on account of dearness of provisions to certain menial servants of
the asylums. It should be mentioned, however,
that under the orders of Government the pay of
those whole-time menial servants who were drawing
Rs. 5 and under was increased by Re. 1 during
the year under report. The usual table showing
the average cost per head on account of Establish-
ment and Supervision is given in the margin. The
figures show a decrease in all the asylums. It was
most marked at Cuttack, where, although the total cost was only Rs. 26 less
than in 1897, the cost per head fell from Rs. 80-10 to Rs. 55-9-5 in 1898. This
result was obtained because the total cost was apportioned among a larger
number of lunatics (38.84) than in 1897 (27.10).
20
LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
criminal lunatics received back to the asylum after trial, and 3 were non-crimi-
nals. One, a female, was removed by her husband on the 9th August 1897,
but sent back to the asylum on the 18th February 1898. One was discharged
cured on the 13th March 1893, and readmitted on the 18th February 1898. The
third was a female, who was removed by her father on the 15th April 1897, and
sent back on the 25th April 1898.
50. Recoveries.—There were 4 recoveries, or 2 less than in 1897, the per-
centage being 10.81, against 16.05 in the previous year. The decrease was due
to there having been a larger proportion of chronic cases.
51. Accommodation is available for 42 lunatics, viz., 23 males and 19
females. There was no overcrowding in the female division, but in the male
ward one lunatic was above the sanctioned capacity for three months.
52. Criminal lunatics.—Two criminal lunatics were admitted and two
readmitted in the year under report. Four were discharged, against 3 in 1897.
The daily average strength was 5.61, against 4.73 in 1897.
53. Causes of insanity—Are shown in the following table. As usual here-
dity and intemperance were the principal factors in the production of mental
aberration:—

LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
61. The cost to Government shows an increase of Rs. 4,220 in 1898.
The income realised from the relatives of paying patients shows a reduction
of Rs. 5,097. The larger collection in 1897 was due to the recovery of the
cost of maintenance of a lunatic who had been in the asylum for a very long
time. The following table shows the number of paying patients treated in
the asylum during the year 1898:—

62. The diet of the lunatics was varied daily, weakly patients receiving
extras. Great attention was also paid to the clothing of the patients. The
lunatics were entertained every month with magic lantern and musical enter-
tainments. They were also supplied with cards, games, and illustrated periodi-
cals. A lawn tennis ground has recently been made for the lunatics. Selected
patients were sent out of the asylum under proper escort for a walk every
morning. They were also taken twice to the Botanical Gardens and frequently
to the Zoological Gardens during the year under report. Hitherto milk was
purchased from outside, but arrangements are being made to obtain it from the
Dullunda Asylum.
63. I inspected the asylum on the 30th April 1898, and I append a copy
of my inspection report.
64. The Superintendent reports that Mr. T. H. Lawton, the Deputy
Superintendent, has done excellent work. The Matron, Mrs. Lawton, has also,
he says, worked thoroughly well in every way. Mr. Lawrence, the Overseer, is
reported to have worked satisfactorily. As regards the work of Civil Hospital
Assistant, Babu Trailokhya Nath Banerjee, the Superintendent says that he per-
formed it in this asylum in an equally satisfactory manner, and that he gets on
particularly well with the inmates.
65. The asylum was well managed during the year under report by
the different officers who from time to time held charge of the institution.
I am especially indebted to my Personal Assistant, Mr. A. Price, and to
Babu Nibaran Chunder Chatterjee, clerk in my office, for the valuable assis-
tance they have given in preparing the details of this report which has enabled
me to submit it at an earlier date than usual.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
T. H. HENDLEY, COL., I.M.S.,
Inspector-General of Civil Hospitals, Bengal.
