Also called Gasoline Trap, made between 1899 and 1903 in Holyoke, Massachusetts by Charles R. Greuter from Columbia Stoker Works. He was then involved in the C.R.G, was employed by Excelsior Motor Company in Chicago and finally was on the engineering team for Stutz and was the most responsible for engine development of the famed DV-32.

I'm far from home and can't verify it, but I'll be glad to have a look in a couple of weeks.
