FROM
A. H. . FRASER, ESQ.,
ASST. SECRETARY TO THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER,
Central Provinces.
To
THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA,
Home, Revenue and Agricultural Department.
Dated Nagpur, the 14th Mau 18803
SIR,
I am directed to submit the reports on the Lock Hospitals of Saugor,
Kamptee, Jubbulpore and Pachmarhi with accompanying statements and subsi-
diary documents.
2. A report on.the Sitabaldi Health Post by the Medical officer who held
charge of it from the 1st of January to the 15th of August 1879 is also submit-
ted. As that institution was found to be completely inefficient and useless for
purposes of protection, it was abolished with effect from the latter date, in
accordance with the orders communicated to the Chief Commissioner in a letter
No. 1006S-C. dated 15th July last, from the Secretary to the Government of India
(Military Department). It is therefore unnecessary to do more than submit the
brief report and statements regarding it.
3. I am to append a statement in which the figures for all lock hospitals
for 1878 and 1?79 are placed together for facility of comparison. In comparing
-the figures now given for 1878 with those given last year, it must be borne in,
mind that the statistics for the Sitabaldi Health Post are now excluded.
4. It will be observed that the average number of prostitutes on the regis-
t E r h a s ' d e c r e a s e d ; a n d i n r e g a r d t o t h i s , t h e m e d i c a l o f f i c e r s o f S a u g o r a n d
Kamptee complain that registration is not very efficient. The Cantonment
Magistrate of .Kamptee maintains, with some show of reason, that the Canton-
ment police cannot be exclusively blamed for this. It is impossible for the Chief
Commissioner to say how far the regimental authorities failed, as is alleged, to
co-operate with the police in restraining unlicensed prostitution ; but there seems
some ground for believing that (as remarked regarding the 33rd Regiment by the
medical officer in charge of the lock hospital at Kamptee) " regimental supervi-
" sion cannot have been very strict." But without energetic co-operation on
the part of the regimental authorities, the Cantonment police cannot be expected
to do successful work.
5. The Chief Commissioner observes that the subject of the non-employ-
ment of female labourers about barracks has received due attention at Kamptee.
This has a very important bearing on the efficiency of the preventive measures
taken in connection with lock hospitals against venereal disease. The attend-
ance of the registered women at the periodical examinations appears to have
been fairly good. All the medical officers report favourably on this point. It
will also be observed that the number of admissions of diseased women for
treatment in the hospitals has every where decreased, and that the diseases under
which they suffered were generally of a mild type.
6. It is satisfactory to find that a very decided decrease of venereal dis-
eases among the troops has been recordedat Saugor, Jubbulpore and
Pachmarhi and the types of disease are generally mild. At Kamptee an increase is shown ;
2
but if the number of cases of disease contracted at other stations .(which were
not formerly included in the returns) be excluded, a slight decrease is shown.
The comparative prevalence of these diseases, however, and their comparative .
severity among the troops at Kamptee, when viewed in connection with the sta
tistics regarding the women there, seem very strongly to indicate the excep
tional frequency of clandestine prostitution at that station, and the necessity for
more vigorous repression. The Chief Commissioner does not fail to observe the
opinion recorded by Dr. Barrow, Senior Medical Officer, British Troops, Nagpur
Force, on the inexpediency of having abolished the Health Post at Sitabaldi,
and on the effect of that measure on the health of Kamptee ; but he does not
consider it necessary to revive here the discussion of that subject, which was
fully considered in the correspondence ending with the letter of the Secretary
to Government in the Military Department already referred to.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,

ANNUAL REPORT oN THE LOCK HOSPITAL, SAUGOR, FOR THE
YEAR 1879.
From Major E. W. C. H. Miller, Cantonment Magistrate, and Secretary Cantonment
Fund Committee, Saugor, to the Secretary to the Chief Commissioner, Central
Provinces, N agpur,— No. 97, dated Saugor, the 27 th January 1880.
In forwarding the Medical Officer's report on the working of the
Lock Hospital, Saugor Cantonment, for the year 1879, I have but to remark
that there were fewer cases of disease than in the year 1877-78. All that can
be legitimately done to detect unlicensed prostitution with the means at com-
mand, is done.
ANNUAL REPORT of the Lock Hospital, saugor, for the year 1879, by
Surgeon Major John TV. Strong, in Medical charge Lock Hospital.
The hospital is capable of containing twenty in-patents, and for that number
the accommodation is suitable. There are two
wards, a dispensary and examination room, two
bath rooms, a cook and four rooms for servants.
There are two latrines in which dry earth conser-
vancy is carried out, and the soil removed twice daily.
There has been no change in the building during the year.
Surgeon M, D. Bateman held charge of the hospital from 1st January
to 15th September 1879;since then I have been in
charge of the institution.
During the year the Detachment of 2-1st Royal Scotts with a strength of
161, showed 41 venereal diseases or 254 per thou-
sand. The forms of the disease were gonorrhœa
20, primary syphilis 14, secondary syphilis 7, total
41. This shows a decrease of 6 cases in gonorrhœa, 4 in primary syphilis, an
increase of 6 cases in secondary syphilis or decrease of 4 cases in the total.
In the Battery of Artillery, I am glad to say that the venereal disease has
shown a greater decrease than last year;out of a strength of 151 men there were
only 39 cases or 258 per thousand against 63 or 420 per thousand during 1878.
The details of the form of disease are as follows: gonorrhœa 26, primary
syphilis 10, secondary syphilis 3, showing a decrease of 24 cases.
The Senior Medical Officer of British Troops furnishes the Cantonment
Magistrate with these returns, and they are regularly
submitted to me weekly.
I.—The nature and extent of hos-
pital accommodation, whether it is
suitable, and whether there has been
any change in it during the year.
II.—Any changes in the medical,
charge of the Lock Hospital during
the year.
III.—The extent of venereal disease
amongst European troops.
IV.—Have the returns been regular-
ly received.
The following are Members :—

The total number of admissions of all diseases during the past year was 69
against 77 in the previous year, and 114 in 1877, showing
a decrease of 8 and 37 respectively.

It will be observed that gonorrhœa has greatly diminished from year to
year ; primary syphilis too has decreased since last year, though it is more than
1877.
The type of disease calls for but little remark, as a rule it yielded readily
to treatment, but a few required a prolonged course of treatment before a
satisfactory result ensued.
X.—Increase or decrease 0f
disease amongst the 'women.
XI. Employment of Dhaies.
The Dhaie employed has given satisfaction.
As is noted in all annual reports, the great drawback to the efficient work-
ing of the Lock Hospital has been the difficulty in reach-
ing the unlicensed women. The soldiers will not assist,
and the police indifferently do so. The Superintendent of
Police, is however, now, a member of the Lock Hospital Committee and defects in
this respect are brought to his notice earlier, who takes all necessary steps in re-
medying them, and it is hoped that most of those women will be detected. I find
also that great assistance is obtained from the registered women, who do not
hesitate to point out the unlicensed women of which they have any knowledge.
4th Class Native Doctor Jeyram has been in subordinate medical charge
during the year. I find him intelligent and most zealous
in the performance of his duties.
