REPORT ON THE RANGOON LUNATIC ASYLUM FOR THE YEAR 1893.
Statement II, which relates only to criminal lunatics, demonstrates that at
the beginning of the year there were 81 of this class in the Asylum and at the
close 84, while the daily average number was 80.93.
To arrive at the number of civil insanes in confinement the figures from
Statement II must be deducted from those taken from Statement I. By doing
this it is found that at the beginning of the year the number of civil lunatics in
the Asylum was 184 and at the end of the year 169, while the daily average number
was 173.81.
The following table exhibits the results of similar calculations for the past
decade:—

civil classes for the last ten years.

The figures in the table relating to criminal insanes are not of much interest
because the number of this class is only representative of the number the
Asylum can accommodate, many having to be provided for elsewhere, and the
same criticism is relevant to most of the figures in Statement II; but in the
case of the civil insanes the numbers are both important and instructive.
Seeing that this is the only lunatic asylum in the province, that the rules
governing the incarceration of civil lunatics have not undergone any very recent
modifications, and that every civil insane sent to the Asylum for detention and
treatment has been admitted, the marked falling off in the number of civil
lunatics received during the year affords matter for reflection.
The activity of the police in arresting supposed lunatics has not diminished:
on the contrary during the year of report there has been an increase in the
number of supposed insanes taken into custody by the Rangoon police.
The procedure followed with regard to vagrant insanes, of whom the Asylum
population largely consists, is this. They are in the first instance arrested by
the police and taken before a Magistrate, who sends them to the Asylum for
medical observation. The Superintendent of the Asylum in due course submits

lum, it is thought desirable to submit the statement in its present form rather
than delay any longer the submission of the report.

It will be seen how large a contribution is made by the Rangoon Munici-
pality towards the expenses of the Asylum and how insignificant is the amount
received from the outside public towards the support of their insane relations.
Whether the Municipalities recover any of the money paid by them, I am
unable to say.
The following table, drawn up by the Assistant Surgeon, gives much in-
formation :—

* Paid by the Military Department, the lunatic being a sepoy.
N.B.—Letter No. 4096-27—2, dated the 3rd November 1888, from the Commissioner of Pegu, conveys
the orders of the Chief Commissioner that civil lunatics sent from Upper Burma are not chargeable to
Municipalities.
Possibly the time has now arrived when the Municipalities and Town Com-
mittees in Upper Burma might be called upon to maintain the lunatics sent by
them to the Rangoon Lunatic Asylum.
Among the patients paid for by the Rangoon Municipality there is a Nor-
wegian sailor, named Frederick, No. 10 on the list of Europeans and Eurasians,
under treatment in the Asylum during 1893, who has now been an inmate of
the Asylum for two months and who costs the Rangoon Municipality Re. 1 per

not been a success during the past year, and more attention is now being paid to
their development. Extramural labour realized Rs. 174-0-11 in excess of last
year's results, and a supply of fuel, obtained from the Asylum grounds, was sold
to the contractor for the respectable sum of Rs. 547-5-3.
In comparing the results of this with previous years, which is done in the fol-
lowing table of cash receipts from all sources, it must be pointed out that the
practice of making cash sales of vegetables and milk to the Asylum was put a
stop to during the year of report.
The sums of Rs. 178-3-2 and Rs. 358-3-0 representing respectively the
value, adjusted by book transfer, of vegetables and milk supplied to the Asylum
during 1893 are not shown in this statement, which relates only to cash actually
deposited by the Asylum in the treasury.

Concluding remarks.—This Administration Report, although bulkier than
most of its predecessors, does not, I hope, contain any matter that could with
advantage have been omitted. The high mortality and the falling off in the ad-
missions of civil insanes have respectively necessitated lengthy explanation and
illustration. On the other hand, the types of insanity found in the Asylum and
the results of treatment have been dealt with briefly and imperfectly, as has like-
wise the subject of Asylum manufactures.
The Assistant Surgeon Maung Thin has given me the utmost assistance in
the preparation of this report, and whatever information it may convey is mainly
the result of his industry.
Mr. Carlile, the temporary Overseer, has performed his duties honestly and
with intelligence.
It affords me pleasure to be able to report favourably on the manner in which
these two officials of the Asylum have performed their various duties.
The Sub-overseer Ismail Sheriff has continued to give satisfaction.
