ACCOUNTING. 63 



When in the judgment of the superintendent, engineer or 

 other officer in charge, it is necessary or desirable to protect 

 parties who supply clothing or tobacco to employees on con- 

 struction or work trains, deductions may be made from same 

 when authorized by employee in writing; no such deductions 

 will be made, however, except upon the written order of the 

 employee. 



Premiums due on accident policies will be deducted from 

 pay roll when authorized by auditor of disbursements. 



In making deductions on orders as authorized above, care 

 should be exercised to conform strictly to the orders; an order 

 authorizing a deduction from a particular month's wages will 

 not be considered as authority for deduction of amount, or any 

 portion of same, from wages earned in any month other than, 

 that specified in the order. 



Orders will not be honored to an amount greater than the 

 wages earned during the period mentioned in the order, and 

 the order must be surrendered to the company before any de- 

 ductions can be made thereon, either for the full amount of 

 the order or a portion only. 



When orders, except as authorized herein, are presented, 

 they should be declined, as the company will not do a collect- 

 ing business for the public. 



Orders for deductions made should be sent to auditor of dis- 

 bursements with pay rolls, and any deduction made other than 

 as authorized herein, or for which proper orders are not re- 

 ceived by auditor of disbursements (except in cases in which 

 it is herein provided that orders are not required), will be dis- 

 allowed. 



Pay rolls will show to whom deductions from each employee 

 are payable, and a deduction roll will be made containing 

 name, address and amount due each party to whom deductions 

 are payable, a separate sheet being made for amounts due 

 Northern Pacific Beneficial Association, accident insurance 

 companies and N. P. Ry. Co. 



ASSIGNMENT OF WAGES. 



Assignments will not be honored unless made for full 

 amount due.
