there has been an increase in affections of the bowels and of the
lungs, attributed, with probability, to an excessive rainfall and a
prolonged cold weather, and a decrease in the number of cases of
syphilis of 39 ; and that there is a general approximation in other
classes of disease, the figures showing but a slight difference in the
two years, there being a tendency to increase in 1872-73 with the
exception of " injuries," in which there is a considerable decrease of
56 cases in that year as compared with 1871-72.

were 311 cases with 15 deaths, giving a death-rate of 4.8 per cent.
Active measures were taken by the Civil Surgeon to segregate the
patients and all available means were adopted for their care and recovery.

of Ahmadabad. It has a special reputation for surgery ; and it will
have a much better chance of keeping up this reputation now that it
has been determined that the medical officer shall be wholly detached
from vaccination duties, and shall devote his skill and energies with--
out interruption to the work of the hospital.

. Comparison between Ahmadabad and Rajkot Civil Hospi--
tals.—Comparing the Ahmadabad Civil Hospital with 90 beds, situat--
ed, too, in the midst of a large and populous city, with the hospital
55
at Rajkot, with 40 beds, and in a town of moderate size, it is found
that during the year, there were in the—
Ahmadabad Civil Hospital 66 operations and 3 deaths 4.5 per cent.
and in the Rajkot do.

do.
12 do. 12.6
per cent.
79.
Surgical cases.—The large mortality at Rajkot occurred in
the operation of lithotomy, there being 41 cases and 9 deaths or 21.9,
nearly 22 per cent. In the previous year there were 37 cases of the
same operation with 2 deaths or 5.4 per cent. At Ahmadabad
there were only 5 cases of lithotomy with
1 death or 20 per cent. The Acting Civil
Surgeon, Rajkot, reports that there was
an outbreak of pyœnia in the hospital.
80. Medical c ases.—Continuing the comparison it is found that
whilst in some of the most common and most important diseases, the
number treated in the two hospitals have a fair relation to each other,
the result of treatment is steadily in favor of the larger hospital, as
was found to be the case in surgical operations:—

had no cases of small-pox, the larger hospital having had 311, with
15 deaths; and there was not one case of "poisoning" at Rajkot,
whilst Ahmadabad had 60 with 6 deaths or 10 per cent.

General conditions affecting public health in Kattywar.—
It is noted by the Acting Civil Surgeon, Rajkot, that, with the excep

and comparative prosperity. The rains were seasonable and abundant,
there was little or no disease amongst the cattle, and the price of
grain and of other kinds of food maintained a lower level than had
been known for several years past.
Civil Hospital, Kaira
.
83.
In the Kaira Civil Hospital 128 cases have been treated, with
a daily average number of sick of 4.2 and 13 deaths, or 10.1 per cent.

11 cases of lithotomy

remarked upon, but a new hospital has been recently completed, and
there are already indications that the better accommodation is being
appreciated by the public. This will form the subject of reportnextyear.
Civil Hospital, Dolead.
84. The Civil Hospital, Dohud, is unlike other civil hospitals. The
civil patients are treated in the Bheel Corps Hospital, the expense of
their support being borne by local funds, 83 patients with 17 deaths
or 20.4 per cent., the average daily sick being 2.8. The principal
mortality has been from diseases of the lungs—11 cases and 7 deaths
or 69 per cent.
Civil Hospital, Sadra.
85.—45 cases were treated with 2 deaths, the average daily sick
being 1.
86. Cholera.—There was only one case of cholera in this circle
during the year, which terminated fatally.
87. Dengue prevailed as an epidemic, but as elsewhere without
fatal results.

89. General working contrasted with its finance. —Whilst con-
sidering the finance of the hospital, the figures given above are so
striking in reference to its general working, that the marked decrease
in the number of persons applying for relief is noteworthy, and
deserves some consideration.
57
90. Effect of Payment System.—The general experience at all our
c i v i l h o s p i t a l s i s t h a t t h e r e i s a t e n d e n c y f o r t h e n u m b e r o f p a t i e n t s
treated to increase year by year. It will be observed that there is an
increase in the number of in-patients over the previous year at this
c i v i l h o s p i t a l — a l l t h e f a l l i n g o f f i n a t t e n d a n c e h a s o c c u r r e d a m o n g s t
the out-patients, to the number Of 10,448.
91.
Introduced by an officer of great local experience.— The Civil
Hospital at Ahmadabad has the advantage of being in the charge of
Dr. Wyllie, an officer of very great experience and long residence
in the city—well and favourably known to all classes : so that the
introduction of a new system, that of payment of a moderate fee by
those well able to do so for medicines, &c., was sure to be effected with
the utmost discretion and judgment.
92. Result. —The result seems to have been that the out-patient
d e p a r t m e n t o f t h e h o s p i t a l w a s d e s e r t e d b y t h e H i n d o o s e s p e c i a l l y ,
and the usual and beneficent working of the institution received what
m u s t b e c o n s i d e r e d t o b e a v i o l e n t s h o c k .
93. The larger proportion of these people would not be well-to-do,
but such as are intended to receive the full benefits of the hospital
gratuitously.
94. Amount of Fees.—The actual sum received for fees amounted
to Rs. 468, paid by Europeans, Parsees, and Mahomedans.
95. It is true that in no city in the presidency is help more wanted
to add to the existing and very insufficient means of affording medical
relief to the sick. Every annual report of the Civil Surgeon notices
the want of further accommodation, and of some additional estab
-
lishment.
96. And surely with such a population some moderate addition in
both directions might be secured by the help of the people them-
selves, but not by a direct charge on individuals.
97. All such charges, whether as subscription or fees, have been
found to fail. After the first burst of enthusiasm has passed, indivi--
duals find that their need can be supplied elsewhere without payment
98. With the last year's experience of the Civil Hospital, Ahma-
dabad, in view, that of Poona being also remembered, it would seem
prudent to return to the gratuitous system before prevailing in our
civil hospitals, and without undue delay.

SIND.
CIVIL HOSPITALS.
99. Inspection.—The Deputy Surgeon General, Sind Circle, has
visited every town at which a hospital or dispensary was maintained,
with the exception of the outlying station of Nagar Parker.
100. Cause of Sickness .—The year has been generally unhealthy
in Sind ; and this has for its cause a great access of dampness and
moisture from the unusual and excessive rainfall, and from the inun
- d a t i o n o f t h e I n d u s , a n d t h e b u r s t i n g o f s e v e r a l b u n d s i n t h e u p p e r
part of the province.
101. This excessive moisture has been productive of malarious
affections, diarrhœa and dysentery, and disease of the lungs
102. Epidemic.—There has been no cholera—a few cases of small
- p o x o n l y h a v e b e e n t r e a t e d w i t h n o d e a t h . M e a s l e s w e r e p r e v a l e n t i n
a few places, but the only epidemic affection was dengue; which appears
to have had the same character in Sind as it assumed elsewhere,
attacking many people but without fatal or even serious results.
103. Statistics. —The Civil Hospitals in Sind are 5, Kurrachee,

been generally satisfactory.
The marginally noted figures show an increase of 645 in the number
of in-patients, and
of 3,041 of out
-patients over the
preceding year.
104. The principal diseases were malarious fevers, affections of the
lungs, diarrhœa, and dysentery.
The following is a list of the number of cases treated, the deaths
from them, and the death rate, in the Sind Civil Hospitals, comparing

Civil Hospitals, Kurrachee and Haidarabad.
105. At Kurrachee there has been much improvement in the general
management of the hospital, and at Haidarabad the working of the
hospital continues to support the high reputation Dr. Holmsted has
acquired.
106. Midwifery Class.— A midwifery class has been established
by this officer during the year. 9 women have already been instruc
-ted and 7 are about to join the class.
107. As regards the public health of both these large towns, it is
a matter of concern, to observe that a sufficient water supply is still
urgently needed.
108. Some important changes in some of the Sind Civil Medical
Institutions are under consideration, but these will properly receive
notice in the Administration Report of the current year.
109. Special information required by Government— Having thus
passed in review the working of the civil hospitals of the presidency,
it remains to give the special information required by Government
(No. 2702 of 1873, dated 30th July).
Three tables have been compiled in the forms ordered—
1. Summary of number of in-door and out-door patients treated
with their diseases ;
2. Financial condition of civil hospitals ;
3. Statistics of sex and caste.
110. Hospitals as school for Assistants.— In reply to the question
- " How far are hospitals used as schools for assistants or for female
nurses ? "—it may be stated that none of the civil hospitals are used
60
specially as schools, with one exception, the Jamsetjee Jejeebhoy
Hospital, although all are more or less concerned in the general train
-
ing of hospital assistants.
Or female nurses .—Female nurses have been trained at the Civil
Hospital, Haidarabad, Sind ; and some are now being trained. But
this is the only instance of the kind known, the attempt to do some
-thing of the same kind at the presidency having failed.
111.
Special accommodation for a superior class of patients
. — I n r e p l y t o t h e q u e s t i o n — " A r e a n y h o s p i t a l s p r o v i d e d w i t h s p e c i a l
accommodation for such patients as may be willing to pay extra
charges ? "—it may be said that there is no such accommodation in
any of the hospitals. In the European General Hospital arrangements
have been recently made for the reception and treatment of warrant
officers, and of persons of a somewhat superior social condition to
the majority of hospital patients, for whose daily maintenance it is
proposed to charge 2 rupees.
112.
No provision.—Doubtless both at the presidency and in the
mofussil it might be practicable to arrange for a special or emergent
case, to save life, but the reception of a superior class of patient has
never been provided for at any of our hospitals or lunatic asylums ;
and in the latter institution, especially, such provision would seem
desirable.
113. I conclude a notice of the civil hospitals of the presidency
with an enumeration of the figured statements, including receipts and
expenditure of civil hospitals and dispensaries, containing information
which it is most desirable to preserve in a printed form for future
observation and reference. And I would specially bring to the notice
of Government the great labour and care bestowed in the preparation
of the statements referring to the Presidency Division, by Dr. John
-stone, Deputy Surgeon General of that Division, and by Dr. Maitland,
Deputy Surgeon General of the Poona Circle.
1.—Financial statements of the medical institutions in the
Presidency, Poona and Northern Divisions ;
2.—Financial statements of civil hospitals only in the form
supplied by Government ;
3.—Tables statisticals of civil hospitals only as required by
Government.

it is found that the number of in

patients of all civil charges was
larger by 4,525 during 1872-73
than in the previous year, and
that the general death-rate was
higher in 1872-73 than in 1871
