OGDEN BUREAU. Business and Editorial Office 519 Utah Loan & Trust Building. Telephone 298. Ogden, March 24. # THE CITIZENS' BANK. # Important Suit Filed Affecting It-Case to Come Up April 10. A petition was filed yesterday in the district court which puts another phase on the controversies growing out of the affairs of the Citizens' bank. The petition was by A. C. Bishop, acting in his capacity as attorney-general, and is for the dissolution of the corporation, the withdrawing of all corporate rights from the institution and for costs of the present action. The complaint alleges, "on information and belief," that the affairs and assets of the bank were turned over to Charles M. Brough Dec. 26, 1893; that said bank had been mismanaged by its cashier, directors and manager, and that all its present assets are less than $5,000; that a receiver was appointed by order of the court. Now, however, it is claimed that a receiver is not necessary, and that the total assets are less than $5,000. Whipple and Johnson, attorneys for the bank, promptly accepted service, and the court made an order for the defendant to show cause on April 11th why the petition should not be granted. Parties in a position to know say the matter is simply another phase of the case of Albert Ladd et al. vs. the Citizens' bank, which is still in court. The defendants had objected to the report of the receiver and to his final discharge, and had moved to have the affairs of the bank put back in the hands of the officers and directors. The other parties were trying to get the assets of the bank sold at auction.
