LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
9. Statement III shows the religion, sex and residence of patients
admitted into the various Asylums in Bengal during the year 1897. The
eight cases received at Dacca from Cachar were all non-criminals. The figures
do not present any important variations, when compared with those of last year.
10. Statement IV shows the occupation of the patients previous to
their admission into the Asylums. In 39 cases, the occupation is said to be
unknown. Amongst the poorer classes there was an increase in the number of
admissions, which is accounted for by the scarcity which prevailed during
1897.
11. Statement V shows the ages of the patients admitted during the
year. As usual, most of them were between 20 and 40 years of age.
12. Statement VI shows the types of insanity in the form prescribed
by the Government of India in Home Department letter No. 57, dated the
28th January 1897.
The admissions during the year under report were—

Mania, as usual, heads the list with 126 cases, or 62.68 per cent. of the total
number of admissions. Recovery in cases of dementia is rare. There were no
recoveries under this heading during the year under report.
13. Statement VII shows the alleged causes of insanity of the patients.
Of the 201 admissions, 64 are attributed to physical causes, 15 to moral causes,
and in 122 cases the causes are said to be unknown. The physical causes are
allotted as follows:—
Ganja-smoking ... ... ...
Use of bhang ... ... ...
Spirit-drinking ... ... ...
Fever ... ... ...
Heredity ... ... ...
Epilepsy ... ... ...
Congenital ... ... ...
Chronic disease ... ... ...

The one case due to the use of bhang was admitted to the Dullunda
Asylum.
Twenty-five cases were due to ganja-smoking, or 5 more than in 1896.
Nine of these are reported from Dullunda. In every case full enquiries were
made, and every effort taken to verify the alleged cause. In a large proportion
of them, however, the patients are said to have been also addicted either to
opium or alcohol, and these cases are, therefore, properly speaking, mixed cases.
Two ganja cases are returned from Dacca. In both of them the Superin-
tendent made careful enquiries, before accepting the statement that ganja was
the cause.
At Patna, there were seven cases, the diagnosis being made by the Super-
intendent himself from facts collected at the time of admission.
The four cases at Cuttack were returned by the Superintendent on the
statements of the lunatics themselves, and on an examination of the history
of their cases.

LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
succumbed to general enfeeblement associated with organic disease. Twelve of
the lunatics who died had been more than twelve years in the asylum, and
5, of the 12 cases were confined for more than 20 years.
Berhampore had 18 deaths, or 3 more than in 1896. Of these, 6 were due
to phthisis, 3 to dysentery, 2 to pneumonia, 1 each to fever and epilepsy.
Besides these there were 4 casualties from exhaustion, and 1 resulted from
acute yellow atrophy of the liver.
Cuttack had 1 death only.
17. Injuries and accidents numbered 14, against 16 in 1896 and 22 in 1895.
Seven occurred in the Dullunda Asylum. In one case a lunatic was pushed by
another, and had a simple fracture of radius. Three were instances of trivial
injury inflicted by one lunatic on another. Of the 3 cases of accidents, one
was a lunatic who sprained his ankle while at work with a cart. The remaining
two cases were simple and unimportant.
At Dacca, there was only 1 case of trivial injury. In this asylum a lunatic
committed suicide by hanging himself from the gratings of his cell. A judicial
enquiry was held, and the warder concerned was found to be careless and remiss
in his duties, but as the evidence of neglect was not sufficient to justify a prose-
cution he was merely reduced to a lower grade of pay.
There was 1 case of injury in the Patna Asylum. A lunatic was found
one morning with broken ribs. A special enquiry was made by the Magistrate,
but no clue could be obtained as to how he received the injury.
The
Superintendent says it was supposed that the lunatic was kicked by another.
A jamadar was reduced to lower pay, and a warder was fined half-a-month's
pay for carelessness. There was 1 case of accident in which a lunatic slipped
near a well and fractured his rib.
At Cutttack, there was no case of injury or accident.
Three accidents occurred at Berhampore. A lunatic had a fracture of
humerus, and another had his radius dislocated. In both cases they were
very violent, and in fits of excitement, fell from the asylum platforms and
injured themselves. The third case was a simple one.
18. Escapes.—No escapes took place during the year from any of the
asylums, which is satisfactory.

47. Admissions—Numbered 19—12 males and 7 females, of whom 6 were
Europeans, 11 East Indians, and 2 West Indians. Two of the 19 represent
readmissions. One of them was a criminal lunatic (male) received back to the
Asylum after trial. The other was a non-criminal (female), who had been made
over to friends as "improved " on the 3rd October 1893. She was sent back
on the 3rd May 1897.
48. Recoveries.—There were 6 recoveries, the same as in 1896, but owing
to a larger daily average strength, the percentage is less, viz., 16.05, against 18.11
in 1896.
49. Accommodation is sufficient for 42 persons, viz., 23 males and 19 females.
The greatest number in confinement in any one night was 24 males and 17
females, and the daily average strength was 21.65 males and 15.73 females,
so that there was no overcrowding during the year.
50. Criminal lunatics.—Three criminal lunatics were admitted and 1 read-
mitted during the year. The daily average strength was 4.73, against 2.13 in
1896. Three were discharged during the year—all males. There was no death.
51. Causes of Insanity.—The following table shows the alleged causes of
insanity in all cases treated during the year. As usual heredity and intemper-
ance account for the greatest number:—

LUNATIC ASYLUMS OF BENGAL.
60. The Superintendent testifies to the good work done both by
Mr. and Mrs. Lawton, the Deputy Superintendent and the matron. He specially
brings to notice the successful efforts of Mr. Lawton in securing to Govern¬
ment a large sum of money during the year under report, which but for the
untiring efforts of the latter would never have been recovered. The overseer
Mr. Lawrence, is also reported to have worked satisfactorily.
61. The Asylum was well managed during the year under review by
Surgeon-Captain Moir up to the 5th October, and by Surgeon-Captain Pilgrim
after that.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient servant,
J.H.NEWMAN, M.D.,
