When a party claims to hold an assignment of wages and 

 notifies the officers, under whom the assignor is employed, the 

 holder of the assignment will be required to produce it; if 

 found good in law, notation should be made in ink on pay roll, 

 opposite name of assigning employee, in column provided for 



receipt, as follows: "Assigned to ," giving name of 



assignee, and date of presentation of assignment; but no de- 

 duction will be made on pay roll. If assignment is presented 

 before pay roll is prepared, a record should be made and 

 proper notation made on pay roll when prepared; if presented 

 after pay roll has been forwarded, the auditor of disburse- 

 ments should be advised by wire. The treasurer must be noti- 

 fied by wire of every assignment as soon as presented. 



After an assignment is made, the assigning employee has no 

 further interest in the wages thus assigned, so far as this com- 

 pany is concerned, and payment will be made to assignee only; 

 and to him only upon surrender of assignment to paying offi- 

 cer, who, upon payment thereof, will take assignee's receipt 

 and attach assignment thereto.

 assignee," and not individually.
