12. Statement No. IX. is the cash account of the asylums for the year.
The total expenditure amounted to Rs. 1,33,858-12-1 as compared with Rs
1,39,518-3-10 in the previous year, and included Rs. 1,10,157-15-7 received
from the Treasury, Rs. 9,521-0-4 paid into Treasury on account of paying
patients, and Rs. 3,143-11-1 value of articles received from Manufacture De-
partment; Rs. 8,669-9-7 were charges on account of work done by the Public
Works Department, Rs. 231-2-6 cost of clothing supplied by the Jail Depart-
ment, and Rs. 2,135-5-0 the cost of English stores and medicines. Deducting
the amount remitted to the Treasury on account of paying patients from the
sum of the amounts received from the Treasury, adjusted by Government, and
value of articles received from the Manufacture Department, the net cost was
Rs. 1,14,816-11-5 as compared with Rs, 1,21,888-7-2 in the previous year.
The decrease is chiefly on account of diets and charges incurred by the Public
Works Department. The net cost per patient was Rs. 175-12-4 against
Rs. 186-9-7 in the year 1885. The following table gives the net cost in each
asylum for the past two years; the increased cost at Dhárwár is due to the
expense incurred on account of 10 new cells :—
