Disinfection.—The floors of all the Wards were disinfe
the ward clothing was disinfected as in previous years in the M
Sterilizer every morning before being handed over to the Dho
washed.
Disposal of the Dead.—The method of the disposal of th
as in previous years.
Inoculated Cases.—The following table gives all the im
regards the cases that had been inoculated with the Plague Pr
subsequently admitted into this hospital suffering either from
diseases.
176
177
It will be seen from this that out of the 14 cases admitted seven were found to
be suffering from Plague, and the rest from various other diseases. Out of the seven
admitted for Plague six died, and one was discharged cured. Out of the six that
died the exact date of inoculation could not he ascertained in two cases, while the
remaining four had been inoculated more than 8 months before admission...
Clinical Notes.—Among clinical points of interest, Dr. Turkhud records two
phyctenular cases, both of which ended fatally. He had one case of Pneumonic
Plague in which hæmoptysis was absent, and ho observes that when hæmoptysis
occurs in the Secondary Pneumonia of Relapsing fever it is more profuse than in
Plague hæmoptysis. Of three pregnant females attacked with plague, two aborted
and died, but the third made a good recovery from the Plague in spite of
miscarriage in the eighth month ; unfortunately, however, when about to be
discharged, she caught a chill, which in her weak state, led to Pneumonia which
ended fatally. Her chart is appended to this report.
Lu stig's Serum.—Two cases were treated during the year with this serum one
of which died, and one recovered. The charts of the cases are appended to this
report.

Mahim Hospital,
This hospital was open throughout the period under report and was maintained
by the Municipality for the convenience of people living towards the-extreme
North of: the Island of Bombay.
Staff.—Dr. H. K. Dady Burjor, Sectional Medical Officer for Mahim, was the
Chief Medical Officer, and lie was assisted by one English Lady Nurse, one Com-
pounder, 3 Ward boys, 3 Ayahs, 1 Dhobi, 1 Cook, 2 Ramosis, 4 Sweepers and 1
Night Soil Cart-man.
Accommodation, §.c.—The accommodation and the conservancy, disinfection,
and mortuary arrangements remained as in previous years.
Admissions and Results. The total number of admissions was 146 of which
99 (with 72 deaths) proved to be Plague. None of these cases, apparently, had
been inoculated.
Clinical Observations.—Among some clinical notes submitted by Dr. Dady
Burjor he records a case of one pregnant woman in which abortion supervened,
the case, however, terminating in recovery. In another case pustular ophthalmia
s upervened and led to disorganization of one eye-ball. In ti third case that of a
woman who recovered, reasoning power was lost and her relatives removed her in
a state of mania. Of 7 cases treated with Iodine Terchloride all died, of 15 treated
with Mercuric Chloride 13 died, and of 71 treated with Salol and Sulpho.-Carbo-
late of Soda 46 died. Appended to this report are charts with notes of four cases
sent up by Dr. Dady Burjor.
Statistics.—The following tables furnish statistical details of the cases ad-
mitted.
