Charlotte, N. C.
  
Sir,
   Your report of shipments for the week ending 26 March has been received. This report shows that the deport is not sufficiently cleared, and you will at once notify the Road that the order to stop both passenger trains will be enforced unless all the Government freight can be transported promptly. This is now a necessity and no relaxation of the order can be permitted.
Very respectfully
Yours etc.
A. R. Lawton, Q. M. Genl.
