ANNUAL REPORT
ON THE
LUNATIC ASYLUMS
IN THE
MADRAS PRESIDENCY
FOE THE YEAR
1896.
MADRAS:
PRINTED BY THE SUPERINTENDENT, GOVERNMENT PRESS.
1897.
OFFICE OF SURGEON-GENERAL
WITH THE GOVERNMENT OF MADRAS,
MADRAS, 15 th April 1897.
From
To
No. 231-A.
SURGEON-MAJOR-GENERAL C. SIBTHORPB, F.R.C.P.L,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Madras,
THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT,
PUBLIC DEPARTMENT.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit to His Excellency the Governor in Council the
annual report on the working of the Lunatic Asylums in the Presidency for the
year 1896.
2. The report has been prepared according to the directions contained in G.O.,
No. 983, Judicial, dated 8th June 1896.
I.-POPULATION AND ACCOMMODATION.
(a) Asylum population—
(1) Remaining.—There were 608 patients remaining under treatment on the
1st January 1896—vide column 2 of Statement I,
(2) Admissions and. re-admissions.—There were 152 admissions and 4 re-
admissions, making a total of 156 against 221 in the previous year—vide columns
3 and 4 of Statement I.
(3) Discharges.—There were 134 discharges of all kinds during the year—
vide column 6 D of Statement I.
(4) Results of treatment.—Of the 134 patients discharged, 95 were cured
and 39 were discharged otherwise. Of those belonging to the latter class, 31 were
handed over to their friends (15 improved, 16 unbenefited), 1 was transferred to
England and 7 to the civil list.
The treatment in all the asylums consisted mainly of attention to general
hygienic principles, with some kind of amusement or occupation congenial to the
patient. Of medicinal treatment, the use of trional and the hypodermic injection of
hyoysamine for maniacal excitement, were attended with much benefit.
The only case of clinical interest was in the Madras Asylum. A man with
strangulated inguinal hernia was operated on and made a successful recovery in
spite of his being subject to repeated violent attacks of acuto maniacal excitement.
(5) Escapes.—There was no escape from the Madras Asylum. There were
two escapes from the Calicut Asylum and two from tlie Asylum at Vizagapatam.
All the four were recaptured. The warders responsible for their safe custody were
warned, fined or suspended according to the gravity of their offence.

(i) Value of stock remaining on the last day of the preceding year.—There was
an increase of Rs. 3,245-9-8 under this head due to the storage of a larger quan.
tity of food articles purchased during the year when the season was favourable.
(ii) Receipts from treasury.—The decrease of Rs. 4,969-5-10 under this item
was mainly due to the low expenditure under * Diet,' ' Clothing and Bedding'
and ' Rates and Taxes.'
(iii) Receipts from paying patients.—There was a decrease of Rs. 85-15-3
owing to the less number of paying patients having been treated during the year.
(iv) Value of stores received from the manufacturing department less cost of raw
materials.—The subjoined statement exhibits the details under this head:—

(a) The larger accumulation of goods with less prospect of demand for
them accounts for the small decrease of Rs. 62-10-9 in the sale-proceeds of
the manufactured goods.
(b) As has already been stated, the value of clothing made over to the
asylums from the manufactory was less by Rs. 1,047-7-10, showing that care
was exercised in the issue of new clothing to the inmates.
(c) The sale-proceeds of the garden produce contributed an increase of
Rs. 959-14-10 due mainly to the increased cultivation of vegetable and lucerne grass
in the Lunatic Asylum at Madras, and to the classification of the sale-proceeds
of the garden produce of the year under report in the Calicut Asylum under the
heading * Value of stores received from the manufacturing department less cost of
raw materials.'
(d) There was a decrease in the cost of raw materials purchased by
Rs. 675-9-0 due, as remarked before, to a larger stock of manufactured goods being
in store.
(v) Book adjustments.—The decrease of Rs. 6,150-8-9 under this item was
due to the less amount spent on works executed by the Public Works Depart inent
in the Asylum at Madras.

(vi) Miscellaneous receipts.—The decrease of Rs. 508-13-8 under this heading
is due to the sale-proceeds of the garden produce of the Lunatic Asylum at Calicut
being included in the present year under ' Value of stores received from the
manufacturing department less cost of raw materials' instead of under ' Miscellane-
ous receipts' as shown and to the less sum realized under this heading in the
Madras Asylum as per subjoined statement:—
