From the Surgeon-General with the Government of Madras, dated Ootacamund,
19th June 1891, No. 398.
ABSTRACT.—Submitting the annual report on the Lunatic Asylums in the Madras Presidency
for 1890.
ORDER—dated 14th July 1891, No. 1400, Judicial.
In each of the years 1888 and 1889 the number of admissions into the asylums
of this Presidency exhibited a tendency to decline, and the inference was drawn that
this was entirely due to the want of accommodation. But in the year under review
the number of lunatics admitted was considerably higher than in that preceding it, and
as there has been no extension in the accommodation available, it must be concluded
that the inference alluded to above was incorrect. The facts are, however, obscured to
a certain extent by the absence of particulars regarding the number of lunatics confined
in jails pending admission to asylums.
Judging from the circumstance that the maximum number of lunatics confined
during any one night in the Madras Asylum amounted in 1890 to 450 only, while the
asylum is estimated to contain 514, it would seem that there is no lack of accommo-
dation in this Institution, but the reverse is the case in Waltair and Calicut, where the
maximum population on any night exceeded, or closely approximated to, the total
number of inmates for which room is available. In this connection it is observed that
the Madras Asylum was shown in the report for 1889 as capable of containing 547
patients and the Waltair Asylum as affording accommodation for 57, but in the
present report these figures have sunk to 514 and 55 ; the cause of this change should
be explained.
2. In the following tables are given particulars of the asylum population during
1890 and preceding years, and of the results of confinement upon the lunatics :—

These figures are by no means satisfactory, for they show that the proportion of
cures effected during 1890 was lower than in any of the four preceding years except
1888, and that the death-rate was by far the highest reached in the quinquennium. The
unusual mortality was equally conspicuous in all the asylums, and was particularly
8
( 33 )
Statement XI do not exactly agree with those denoting the daily average strength in
Statement I; the reason for the difference should be explained. There is still, however,
room for improvement in the Madras asylums. For example, there is no reason why
Bengal should be able to employ 77.7 per cent. of its asylum population on industries
while in Madras the corresponding figure is only 45.8 per cent., nor is there any appa-
rent cause why the average earnings per head in the Madras Presidency should amount
to only Rs. 11-10-0 while in Bombay they reach Rs. 13-3-0. These facts are accen-
tuated by the differences existing between the various asylums under this Govern-
ment ; thus, in Calicut the average earnings amounted to Rs. 20 per head of those
employed, while in Madras the corresponding figure was Rs. 13-5-0 and in Waltair
only As. 14. No reason has been given for these large variations; the matter
should now be explained. The extension of the manufacturing department is
desirable, not only from an economical point of view, but also as a means of occupying
the attention of the patients.
8. On the whole, the administration of the Lunatic Asylums during the year
cannot be regarded as altogether satisfactory ; in many respects the results obtained
were inferior to those of 1889, and from some points of view the asylums in this
Presidency do not compare favourably with those elsewhere.

From
SURGEON MAJOR-GENERAL W. F. DEFABECK, M.D.,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Madras,
To
THE CHIEF SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT,
JUDICIAL DEPARTMENT.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to forward, for the Information of the Right Honorable the
Governor in Council, the annual report on the Lunatic Asylums in the Madras
Presidency for the year 1891.
2. ACCOMMODATION.—The following table shows the accommodation in each of
the asylums and the extent to which this was utilised during the year: —

In Madras the accommodation was ample, at Calicut there was slight over-
crowding, and at Waltair the accommodation was fully availed of.
The Superintendent of the Calicut Asylum reports that " application for
admission had to be refused in many instances and a few from the District Jail,
Calicut, had to be sent to Madras Asylum for want of accommodation here."
The Superintendent of the Waltair Asylum writes that, " for want of accom-
modation, 1 criminal male, 6 civil and 2 military lunatics were refused admission.
When the criminal wards are opened at Madras there will be ample accommo-
dation available at both Calicut and Waltair, as the present criminal accommodation
at these asylums is 36 and 11 respectively, and this will then be available for civil
insanes.
3. BUILDINGS.—The existing buildings in all the three asylums are in good
repair.
At Madras the criminal enclosure sanctioned in G.O., No. 1012 W., dated
10th April 1891, is nearly finished. Up to the 31st December 1891, the expendi-
ture on this building was Rs. 40,261-3-11.
In his annual report the Superintendent of the Madras Lunatic Asylum
says that a much needed addition is a wall: " With a complete boundary wall the
patients will have far greater freedom than at presents; and the ' Noisy enclosure'
will then become available for increased gardening as well as the establishment of
weaving or other manufactures. In addition to this the cultivation of vegebables,
&c., in the asylum grounds can be largely increased when the presence of a wall
affords protection from thieves. At present only a limited area of a very large
extent of ground available for cultivation can be made use of."
The Suggestion appears to be sound and after further inquiry as to the cost,
&c, I shall report to Government on the subject.
4. The water-supply to the Madras Asylum has been from the Red Hills tank
solely, there has been a very large expenditure due(1) to the large number of

The marked improvement in the year under review as compared with the pre-
vious year is satisfactory, and is attributable, I think, to the increased attention
bestowed on the subject; my remarks on the previous paragraph are equally
applicable here.
The commonest causes of admission were in order of frequency, privation,
narcotics (which includes ganjah, bhang and opium), epilepsy and intemperance.
The following table shows the causes of admission for the last five years under
some headings of interest:—

The large proportion of cases admitted under ganjah as compared with opium
is worthy of notice in these days when so many evils are ascribed by certain persons
to opium.
The very large increase under " privation " is, I presume, in accordance with
the alleged distress which has been present in parts of the Presidency.
9. TYPES OF INSANITY.—As usual dementia shows the largest number treated,
the reason for which was explained in the report for 1889.
The annexed Statement shows the percentage of recoveries and deaths to those
treated during the last five years for the commoner forms of insanity.

There is no uniformity between the figures in this table, and the variations are
most probably due to differences in Classification only, a new form having come
into force in 1890.
The increase in the number of cures under dementia in the Madras Asylum is
explained as follows by Dr. Dobie:—
* Includes spirit drinking.

ANNUAL REPORT ON LUNATIC ASYLUMS.
large increase under manufactures, Rs. 5,370-11-10, is, as will be seen later on,
due to some extent to the faultiness of Form XI—the net profit shown being more
apparent than real. However, from the figures in column 17 of Statement XI, it
will be seen that a very satisfactory progress has been made during the year under
report in manufacturing, the figures rising from Rs. 3,029-8-4 to Rs. 5,444-10-2.
In the above sum is included the value of garden produce which was Rs. 550 in
Madras, Rs. 46-10-2 in Waltair, and Rs. 347-10-11½ in Calicut.
The presumed incorrectness above referred to is as follows :—
It will be seen on examining Statement XI that the net profit (column 19)
is in excess of the profit (column 17). The memorandum at foot appears to be
superfluous and incorrect ; in this memorandum the difference between the opening
and closing balances in the value of raw materials, manufactured goods, plant and
machinery is added or subtracted according, as the closing balance is in excess or
deficient of the opening balance ; the necessity for this is not apparent, and the
values of these heads, columns 6, 7 and 8 of credit, and 10, 11 and 12 of debit are
twice taken into account.
Although the form itself is correct, so far as showing the true profit or loss
in columns 17 and 18, it appears to be faulty in other respects, that is, if column 19
and the memorandum be allowed to stand :—columns 5 and 7 are items under the same
head " credits," but a transfer of the figures from 7 to 5 will decrease the net
profit (column 19) to the same extent; but the result in columns 17 or 18 will not
be affected—a proof that column 17 represents the true profit. An example will
show the above more clearly. In this year's statement Rs. 3,488-9-6 represents
column 7—the value of manufactured goods in store at the end of the year. If the
Superintendent for any reason just before the close of the year made over all these
manufactured goods for the asylum use by a transfer of the figures under column 7
to column 5, the net profit column 19 (which it is presumed is intended to show the
profit made by the year's work) would be reduced by Rs. 3,488-9-6.
More need not be said, I think, to show that the form is incorrect, compli-
cated, and requires recasting.
The form minus the memorandum at foot and column 19 appears to be com-
plete and correct in itself, the difference between columns 9 and 16 represents a
true credit or debit as the case may be.
Another way of demonstrating that the form is incorrect, and that column
17 represents the true profit of the year is by taking the actual credit for the year,
columns 4 and 5, and deducting the actual debits, columns 13, 14 and 15, and then
proceeding as is done in the memorandum at foot and deal with value of stock
opening and closing balances, columns 6, 7 and 8 credit, and 10, 11 and 12 debit,
the result obtained will be in accord with the figures in column 17—vide statement
annexed.
