11th September 1889, No. 595-0.
ABSTRACT.—Forwarding annual report on the Lunatic Asylums of this Presidency for the
year 1888.
——
ORDER—dated 25th October 1889, No. 1815, Judicial.
With the foregoing letter the Surgeon-General with the Government submits the
report on the working of the three Lunatic Asylums in this Presidency, viz., Madras,
Calicut and Vizagapatam, during the year 1888. In the following statement the
chief results obtained are contrasted with those of 1887:—

The most noticeable feature is the steadily-increasing average strength combined
with, and in spite of, a decrease in admissions ; but this diminution in the number of
fresh patients received is almost certainly not due to any falling off in applications for
admission or in cases of insanity brought to notice. It occurs mainly in the Madras
Asylum, and is attributable solely to absence of accommodation. The monthly
returns from this asylum show that during the latter half of the year under report,
an average number of 13 applicants were awaiting admission, and this fact sufficiently
explains the sudden decline in the number admitted (126), which is the lowest since

medicines also costing more. As the population was slightly larger than in the
previous year, establishment and superintendence remaining the same, the average
charge should have shown rather a decrease than an increase, and the Government
will be glad to know
what explanation is
offered of the heavier
expenditure per head.
From the marginally-
given statement, show-
ing the average cost
per head of each patient
under each of the last
three years under each
main head of expendi-
ture, it is observed that
there was a consider-
able rise in the cost of
dieting in the Calicut
asylum in 1888 and a smaller increase at Madras. Contingencies in the first-named
institution have also largely risen. These facts should be explained. Deducting
from the total cost as above shown (Rs. 86,463-0-2) the sum of Rs. 6,189-2-11 received
from paying patients and of Rs. 28,156-11-1 recovered from Municipal and Local Funds,
the balance (Rs. 52,117-2-2) represents the net charge against Provincial funds of
lunatic asylums. The figure given in the report is Rs. 52,125-6-0, but in this is
included a saving of Rs. 8-3-10 in the Calicut asylum on account of establishment.

No. 641.
From
W. F. DE FABECK, ESQ., M.D.,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Madras,
To
THE CHIEF SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT,
Judicial Department.
SIR,
I HAVE the honor to submit, for the information of the Right Honorable the
Governor in Council, the annual report and statistics showing the working of the
three asylums in the Madras Presidency for the year 1889.
2. GENERAL RESULTS.—The total population during the year was 792, consisting
of 598 males and 194 females against 795 in the previous year, made up of 603
males and 192 females.
Including re-admitted cases there were in all 145 admissions during the year
against 168 in the previous year. The number discharged was the same as last
year, 88 males and 21 females. Of these, 68 were cured, 29 transferred (25
improved and the rest unimproved), and 12 discharged otherwise. The percent-
age of cures shows an improvement over the previous year, being 10.57 and 46.89
to average strength and admissions, respectively, against 9.45 and 36.30 in 1888.
The following table shows the proportion of recoveries to number treated for
some of the commoner forms of insanity:—
Mania ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Melancholia ... ...
...
...
...
...
...
...

Dementia
...

Toxic insanity ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
11.55
13.33
5.93
3.03
13.04
Dementia and epileptic insanity show the smallest proportion of recoveries,
and this is in consonance with the experience in English asylums.
3. SICKNESS AND MORTALITY.—During the year there were 323 cases treated in
the asylums for diseases other than lunacy, a little over the number of admissions
last year.
The asylums, however, were free from any epidemic, except a single case of
cholera in the Madras Asylum, which proved fatal. The most common ailments
during the year were dysentery and diarrhœa—118 admissions, 51 of the former
and 67 of the latter. The rate of mortality in the asylums has been considerably
higher than in the previous year. There were 51 deaths against 39 in 1888. Of
these, 10 happened among insanes admitted during the year and 41 from amongst
the oldstanding cases, the death-rate thus being 6.8 among the former and 6.3
among the latter. It may be remarked here that this increase in the death-
rate is chiefly due to the heavy mortality in the Madras Asylum, which Dr.
Armstrong, the Superintendent, explains as having been caused by deficient
drainage and contaminated water-supply in the female enclosure of the asylum.
All possible precautions were taken, but, as the Superintendent remarks, until the
well is finally closed, it will always be a source of danger. Pipe-water is now
being introduced, so that better results may be expected in future.

There were no deaths in the Vizagapatam Asylum, such an occurrence not
being known for the previous 25 years, the average annual death-rate being 6.2 for
that period. Moreover, it is to be noted that the year was an unhealthy one in
the district, cholera, diarrhœa and dysentery prevailing in an epidemic form.
4. CRIMINAL LUNATICS.— On the first day of January 1889, there remained under
treatment 123 males and 19 females, to which were added during the year 13 males
and 4 females, making a total population of 136 males and 23 females. Of these,
12 were discharged and 4 died, leaving in confinement on the last day of the year
143 insanes of both sexes.
The following table contrasts the statistics of criminal lunatics for the last
four years and shows that there has been an increase in the residual population at
the end of each year :—

5. PROFESSION OR OCCUPATION.—Of the total admissions, the profession or occu-
pation of 17 insanes was unknown, but of those ascertained the largest number of
admissions, namely, 36 under one head appears against " No occupation " and its
probable cause is, as was explained on a former occasion, due to the fact that most
of the individuals returned under this class were from feeble intellect unable, at any-
period of their lives, to engage in regular occupation. Of the 11 privates admitted,
5 were Europeans and 6 natives of India.

The largest number of admissions was between the ages of 20 to 40. This is
consistent with the experience of past years and is due, as was often observed, to
the heavy strain on the mental organization at this period of life, this being the
time of highest mental development, the prime of vigour, and the time when the

The only asylum that shows any increase in the monthly average cost is
Waltair; but this increase is more than counterbalanced by the decrease in the
Madras and Calicut asylums.
10. The particulars of the establishments of the three asylums and their costs
during the year are given in table X appended to the report, according to which
there is a slight falling off in the monthly cost during 1889, owing to the reduction
effected in the number of keepers.

Your most obedient servant,
