Disapproval of Claim for Shipping Coal

Carlisle Indian School Superintendent informs the Commissioner of Indian Affairs that Lynah & Read, coal suppliers, made a claim for $2.00 because B. & O. Railroad Company charged them for switching rails while the coal was sent to Carlisle. Assistant Commissioner E. B. Meritt informs Francis Jr. that the claim is an issue between the coal and railroad company, so he doesn't need to pay it.
