Annual Report . 
[Feb. 
Rs. 153-10-6 under the head of “ Sale of Publications. ” The difference 
between the estimated and actual receipts, under the head of “ Govern¬ 
ment Allowances,” is due to the grant from the Government of Madras 
for Part III of the Society’s Journal, ' dealing with Anthropology, 
Ethnology, and Folklore, not having been received during the year. 
On the Expenditure side, the items of “Binding,” “Journal, Part I,” 
“ Journal, Part II,” and “ Proceedings,” show an increase. The heavy 
increase in the “ binding ” is due to a third set of the Society’s “ Asiatic 
Researches,” “ Journals,” and “ Proceedings ” having been bound for the 
Society’s Library, and to the binding of some old works. The budget 
grant for “Journal, Part I,” has been exceeded by Rs. 408-4-6; this is 
owing to the payment for the printing of the maps illustrating Major 
Raverty’s article on the “ Mihran of Sind and its Tributaries.” The 
expenditure on “Journal, Part II,” shows an increase of Rs. 1,141.-8-9, 
caused chiefly by the payment of £68-11 for plates, to Messrs. West, 
Newman & Co. Owing to the Baptist Mission Press having been paid 
for the printing of eleven numbers of the “ Proceedings” instead of ten, 
as usual, there is a slight increase of Rs. 253-8-6 under this head. 
An Expenditure of only Rs. 807-4-8 appears under the head of 
“Books,” in consequence of the non-receipt of Messrs. Kegan Paul, 
Trench, Triibner and Co’s accounts, the books purchased through the 
London Agents amounting to £67-13-10, 
There were two extraordinary items of expenditure during 1894, 
under the heads of “ Repairs ” and “ Furniture,” not provided for in 
the Budget. Rs. 1,761-6-0 was spent in cleaning and renovating the oil 
paintings belonging to the Society and in repairing the cane matting. 
Four almirahs were removed from the stock-room to the Library, and 
the necessary repairs cost Rs. 199. 
The actual expenditure on the “ Journal ” and “Proceedings ” was 
as follows:— 
Journal 
Proceedings.,. 
Part I. 
Part II. 
Part III.

This is less than the Budget Estimate by Rs. 270-5-6. Only one 
number of the Journal , Part III, was issued for 1894. 
The Budget Estimate of probable ordinary Receipts and Expendi¬ 
ture for 1895 has been fixed as follows:—Receipts, Rs. 16,844; Ex¬ 
penditure, Rs. 16,013.
