Kimani Arbourne scored twice in the emphatic victory which was the second over Mona this season.
Charlie Smith now has 13 points, six clear of Excelsior, but Excelsior has a game in hand.
In Group F, Hydel, the leader, was held to a second successive draw, after ending 0-0 with St. Jago.

St Catherine and Eltham ended 1-1 in the group's other game.
In Group C, Innswood went to second place, after a 2-0 victory over St Mary's College.
