Thanks for the explanation. I was going to ask this:
If bill counts were down but tonnage was up, that could be ok right? For example, I ship to 3 people but one of them goes out of business and now I ship to two people but one of them picked up the business of the 3rd (that went out of business). My shipping amount is the same, but my bill count is down by 1.
But as you said, tonnage is down similarly so I guess that's not what's happening.

"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
