INSANITY is INCREASING
DR.. Forbes Winslow Cites Some
Appalling Statistics.

London, Aug. 5.-Dr. Forbes Wins
low, the well known alienist speaking
OF the statement OF DR.. Mott, at the
eusenics conference, that the increase
or lunacy IS more apparent than real,
says that Investigations made by him
during the last forty five years in vari-
GUS parts Of the world convince him
that lunacy is making uninterrupted
progress and that The only goal 70 be
reached is world madness in the not
distant future.
DR.. Mott bases his figures and con-
illusions mainly on study OF the
pauper class in London" said Or.
WinsloT yesterday. Although there
IS more crime, lunacy and drink in
London than in any city Of the world
would be the last 10 take statistics
OF insanity in London as a basis for an
opinion.
I'm 1889 there was one lunatic for
every $50 OF the population; to-day
there is one in every 215. In France
sixty years ago there was one insane
person In every 80: to-day there is
one in every 800.
Switzerland. where I made an OIL
ctal investigation last Year. shows also
an alarming increase. Last year in
England the figures were the highest
for the decade-2,604, as opposed to
2.02l, the average increase in the last
ten years. The question is Of vital i'm
portance not only to the present gem
Grafton, but 10 the generations unborn.
From the point Of view Of compari
son the increase Of the population has
nothing to do with the increase OF in
sanity in England. The cities. taken
in the order in which insanity is most
prevalent, are London. Bath. Bristol
and Brighten. There is less insanity
in Bournemouth than In any town
why I do not know, except that
Bournemouth is exceptionally healthy
Among the uncivilized races insau-
ity is practically unknown. but where
tai efforts have 10 be made TO keep up
with events and where temptation Is
thrown in the way Of mankind the in
crease is very real. The chief cause Of
the increase Is shown by statistics TO
be drink. twenty-five per cent Of all
the lUnacy in the world is due TO drink.
and more than % per cent in London.
Other causes are heredity and in
judicious marriages. Those who have
been insane once should not be allowed
to marry. Further TO check mental de-
generation there should be immediate
legislation for the compulsory confne-
ment Of habitual drunkards and for the
establishment of halfway houses. where
those suffering from acute but durable
insanity could be placed, instead OF in
generated in lunatic asylums.'
The annual report Of the Lunacy
Comm. ssion, just issued, shows 49,. 6o1
insane confined in England and Wales
on January | last. Patients not in
hospitals numbered 11.136.

BOURSE QUIET. BUT FIRM
Business in Paris Limited to
Professional Dealings.
[By Cable to The Tribune.

Paris, Aug. 3.-Business at the
Bourse is limited TO professional deal
ings, but the prevailing tone Of the
market is firm. A considerable ad-
vance is noted in South African gold
mines, caused by the leading COM
panies consenting to give the French
capital a much fuller representation on
their boards Of directors than hitherto.
French investments in Russian secu-
rites have increased during the week
and are now estimated at over 5000
100000.
The French wheat crop has had a
setback owing 10 the wet weather Of
the last ten days, and portions which
have been harvested show signs of ger
mination. but the total crop is esti-
mated as considerably above the av-
erage
