| Sir, |
| In reply to your communication of the 7th, I have to
inform you that you are authorized to give transportation to the
clothing: the rule is to allow all such packages to be transported on
Government account. |
| Agents, when sent, go at their own cost and charges:
there is no authority to give them public transportation. |
