Summary
"REVIVES PERPETUAL MOTION - Wisconsin Man Announces That He Has Solved Impossible Problem", Daily Sentinel (Grand Junction, OH): 1, 25 May 1901, "Somers, Wis., May 22. — After a year of seclusion William Otto, known throughout southern Wisconsin as 'Perpetual Motion Otto,' has come before the people again and announces that he is working on a machine which will serve the long sought secret of perpetual motion. The machine has not been seen by any one but it is said that in the last two months it has been in constant operation. Many years ago Otto was a prosperous farmer in the town of Somers. He conceived the idea of solving the question of perpetual motion, and his fortune has vanished. His enthusiasm over his invention has been contagious, and he has sold thousands of shares in a company which is to place his invention on the market when it is completed. The old man now says that success is in sight and promises to give a public exhibition of the machine which will represent the results of his labors for the last ten years. For over thirty years he has been laboring with the machine and no doubt will die while searching for the sure problem."
