16. Statement No. XIII. gives further particulars regarding criminal lunatics
as to caste, sex, nature of the crimes committed, and the number of this class employ-
ed. Out of an average strength of 90.2 (including 85.5 males and 4.7 females)
32 males and 3.3 females were employed. With regard to the crimes committed
24 males had been charged with theft, 42 males and 4 females with murder, 4
males with culpable homicide not amounting to murder, 5 males with attempt to
commit suicide, 13 males with voluntarily causing hurt, seven males with house-
breaking, six males with mischief and assault, and seven males and two females
with miscellaneous offences.
17. I visited and inspected the asylums at Colába and Poona several times
and I also inspected the asylums at Dhárwár and Ahmedabad in the course of my
tour, while the asylum at Hyderabad was inspected by the Deputy Surgeon-
General of the Sind Circle. The Superintendents have performed their duties
efficiently. Surgeon Ferguson, who took charge of the Colába Asylum from
Surgeon-Major Nolan in July when the latter was obliged suddenly to proceed
to Europe, is to be commended. The period was a critical one owing to
the large number of Europeans in the asylum well or semi-well, some of whom
considered themselves aggrieved by not being sent home in the previous cold
season as they expected (owing to want of accommodation on boardship). These
men were very discontented, and on one occasion created a disturbance; but Surgeon
Ferguson by tact and judicious treatment prevented a recurrence. Dr. DeTatham
(Hyderabad) was successful in employing lunatics in building some new isolating
cells. At Dhárwár Dr. McConaghy had much trouble during an epidemic of
cholera which he managed well (vide Abstract of the Dhárwár Report). The
subordinate servants are generally reported on favourably by the Superintend-
ents. The Official Visitors, with two exceptions, have been regular in their
attendance.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
W. J. MOORE,
Surgeon General with the Government of Bombay.

abad by the side of the high road leading from Hyderabad to Gidu Bandar. It consists of
a large enclosure surrounded by mud wall, the greater part of which is under cultivation.
Within, there are two smaller enclosures, locally termed fort. In each fort are a number of
pendals built on raised plinths in which the patients sleep. The average daily number of
patients in the asylum during the year has been 135, of whom 119 were males and 16
females. The largest number present at any one time was 149. Fifty-three patients were
admitted, 48 males and 5 females, the 49 males including six criminals. The daily average
strength of criminal lunatics was 16. The total number of admissions into hospital was 72,
the largest number being for ague. Visitors' meetings were held every month except on
two occasions when a quorum could not be obtained. Those patients who are willing to
work are employed in drawing water, grinding grain, chopping wood, cooking, tailoring,
gardening, &c. Surgeon-Major DeTatham reports he is "now employing a party of lunatics''
in building two small rooms for the reception of excited patients, and that the garden,
under the charge of a máli with a few lunatics to assist him, has furnished a daily supply of
fresh vegetables to the inmates of the asylum all through the year. Dr. DeTatham also
reports that during the hot months he gave jowári bread every other day instead of bájri
bread—a change much appreciated by the patients. The establishment has undergone a
reduction during the year which was ordered as a tentative measure for six months, viz.,
2 warders, 1 cook, 1 goorgah and 1 tailor and the pay of the barber was increased by
Rs. 2 to do the goorgha's work in addition to his own. At the close of the year it consisted
of 1st Class Hospital Assistant and 21 subordinate servants. Hospital Assistant Mendes
is again reported as performing his duties to the entire satisfaction of the Superintendent,
and the subordinate servants have all worked well.

head warders for gross neglect of duty. Surgeon Collie, although only tempora-
rily in charge, has interested himself much in matters connected with this new
asylum, and deserves credit. As I have before observed, the plan of the asylum
is a good one for three or four hundred patients, but not for the small number
(96) for which it has been constructed. The official visitors have been regular
in their attendance at all the asylums.
18. During the year, a Committee was appointed by Government to report
on the lunatic asylum accommodation of the Presidency. The Committee's report
was presented on 12th July 1886. The principal recommendations were an
asylum for soldier insanes at Devláli, the abolition of the Colába Asylum,
and the formation of a central asylum at some convenient locality on the
railway system, which should be supplied with all modern requirements, so
that it might be really a place adapted to the curative treatment of lunacy,
instead of merely serving for the safe custody of insanes ; the retention of the
small mofussil asylums as feeders to the central asylum, and as places to which
certain classes of patients might be relegated. Government were pleased to say
they had read this report with great interest, but for financial reasons the pro-
posals could not now be carried out.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
W. J. MOORE,
Surgeon-General with the Government of Bombay.

SIR CAWASJI JEHANGIER ASYLUM, HYDERABAD, SIND.
Superintendent—SURGEON-MAJOR B. C. KEELAN.
The asylum was under the charge of Surgeon-Major DeTatham to 12th May 1886,
when he was relieved by Surgeon Koyáji, who held charge for a few days, and was relieved
by Surgeon-Major Keelan on 19th May. The average daily strength of insanes in the
asylum during the year was 136. There were 44 admissions—41 males and 3 females ; of
these 4 were criminals. The number discharged during the year was 24, including 21 males
and 3 females. The number on the sick list was 69 : the chief causes of sickness were ague,
diarrhoea, dysentery, and debility; 13 patients died. The buildings remain the same, re-
pairs have been executed, and the patients are about to build a shed. The water-supply,
clothing, food, and conservancy are satisfactory. Accommodation is ample : the asylum will
contain 170 lunatics; the largest number confined at any one time was 142. Nearly all the
insanes are employed on drawing water, working in the garden, cooking, and brick-making.
The average number employed was 72 males and 14 females. The patients are encouraged
to work by the grant of some little indulgence to those who work well. The garden has
yielded a daily ration of vegetables during the whole year to the inmates of the asylum.
Hospital Assistant Mendes is again favourably mentioned for zeal and efficiency. The Com-
mittee of Visitors have met regularly. The cost was Rs. 9,824-4-1, and the cost per patient
Rs. 72-3-9, as compared with Rs. 15,071-5-11 and Rs. 111-10-2, respectively, in the previous
year.

Surgeon General of the Sind Circle, and though that officer's remarks have not

tion it provides is sufficient.
