The figures generally follow the same lines as in previous years.
Where marked variations occur, as in the death-rate of male children in
1892 and 1893, the numbers treated are as a rule so small, that a death or two
more or less makes a marked difference in the percentages. A single death at
the Chandney Hospital thus gives a percentage of 16.66 in 1891 and of 4.16 in
1893. The increased figures at Howrah are due to a great influx of pilgrims
returning from Puri, many of them moribund from dysentery and diarrhœa.

percentage of deaths among the in-patients. Statement II in the appendix
shows the chief causes of admission of both in and out-patients.
