SOLVES PERPETUAL -MOTION.

Bnstol, Tenn, Dec. 1 8. The exnected.
town or Johnson JJity, Tenn., is
excited oyer the prospect that one
of its citizens, A. Tf Markwood, a
veteran railroad conductor, has
solved theproblem !of perpetual
motion, chimericdl as that old
problem seems. , Markwook
recently gave up his position on
the Southern Railway, with the
" belief that he ; had solved the
problem. He at once employed an
expert machinist, and for weeks
worked the ideas which he had
evolved. It is now related by men
who. have been taken into the
confidence of the inventor that he
has been successful, and that his
machine, a unique and strange
contrivance of brass and steel and
others metals, has proved to be a
selfpropeller, which requires a
strong governing apparatus to
prevent it gaining such velocity as
to actually destroy itself. While the
form of the machine is a secret
except to a very few persons who
ha.ve been taken into the confidence
of the inventor, it is said to be as
N large as an ordinary box car. A
three days test of it is said to have
demonstrated that it is a success.
At any rate, men of intelligence in
Johnsou City, lawyers and business
men. have indicated their con-
.. .
fidence by grabbing for stock in it
t almost any price, and it is now
said that stock valued at $100 a
few days ago, could not be bought
for twelve times that amount.
