A confusing court case took place in Kansas City, MO. when on Dec, 15, 1905 Lucius, who had become chief clerk for his employer, George L. Thomas of New Jersey and engaged in business at 320 Broadway both received two indictments by the grand jury. One indictment charging "to offer, give and grant" rebates or monies they were acquitted of and therefore not guilty. The second charge "to accept and receive" rebates "in the guise of claims and commissions" they were found guilty. The alleged rebates referred to allegedly were from the railroad and to be passed on to the shippers as an inducement to further business. They appealed the decision of the guilty verdict alluding that if the one indictment was decided in acquittal then the second should follow. A conspiracy between Taggart and Thomas was questioned, and it was suggested that it was possible and probable that Taggart had no knowledge of the alleged rebates or commissions as such. The appeal gave argument and listed multiple errors performed by the court in not instructing the jury as it should have to allow complete understanding of facts before a verdict was determined.
