William W. Garwood, chairman of the reorganized board, filed in U S district court in Denver for a receiver of the Denver Laramie Northwest road to protect creditors and preserve property. Judge R E Lewis will hear the petition this afternoon amid disputes with a rival faction. The filing cites $425,000 floating debt and insolvency, seeks an injunction, and argues a friendly receivership can stabilize the company.
