Berlin, October 26. Four score years and ten, a score more than the allotted Biblical span to how few men, great or lowly, is it cranted to abide so Ions in tbe world of men! Tbe race of1 giants, of nineteenth century Jletnuselabs, seems to be fast disappearing. In all Europe there are not many; in Ger many there are only two Bismarck and von Moltke. An old man already, Bismarck mores among bis fellows as erect and sturdy as ever; a hardy nonagenarian, Moltke seems to be yet a far vray off from the valley of the shadow of death. Tbe master of these men, tbe Kaiser, who by their aid made the German Empire what it is, has gone over to the majority; the statesman and the strate gist still remain, living memorials of tbe rich, indestructible past This is the ninetieth birtbday of Hel muth Karl Bcrnhard Freiherr von Moltke and by thousands of Germans in tbe Father land and abroad tbe memorable event will be celebrated with feasting, music, com plimentary orations and much timely glori fication of the beloved old hero. In Germany the undaunted old warrior will be congratulated bv the Emperor, by tbe army, by the nation; from his countrymen in this city and throughout the country he wi'i receive abundant tokens of homage and admiration. A GKEAT ANNIVERSARY. The soulof Germany has gone lorth to the grent soldier who completes his 90th ycai. All day long every thoroughfare lias "been thronged with enthusiastic citizens, not only o. Berlin, but ol hundreds of distant hurgs Jteld Mughal Von MoltKe. who flocked to Germany's capital to do. honor to the great strategist who knew so wall how to be "silent in seven languages." They all shouted the patriotic anthem of 20 years ago, when every citv from the Baltic to the Iser and from the Rhine to the Vistula was ringing with the "Watch on the Rhine." Berlin had seen no such outbursts of true military enthusiasm since William the Vic torious entered the city in 1871 at tbe head of his troops, just returned from the war. Forty thousand Berliner marched from the Spree to the Column of Victory loudly call ing on yon Moltke to '"Live forever." Unter den Linden was illuminated and draned with Prussian and imperial flags. THE GRAND MARCH. The march yesterday was opened by vet erans from all over the Empire. Tnen came the great bulk of Berliuers, divided up into brigades from the various electoral districts with all their political differences for the moment forgotten in paying honor to tbe great soldier. Among "tbe torchlighters were all sorts and conditions of men. Tbe academic j-outh and students, however, suc ceeded in proving, as was natural, the artis tic success of the celebration. They had copied from the historic times of 20 centur ies, and came marching by in detachmeuts representing every era of German history, from Tacitus' brave barbarians down to an arnusiug caricature of Major von Wiss mann's Zulus. On reaching the building of the general stac, where the Field Marshal, surrounded by every corps commander in tbe Empire hum a great numoer oi superior officers, stood with uncovered head, a committee of art students presented the Count with a laurel wreath of solid silver, for which he spoke a lew words of thanks. Two hours it took the procession to pass where Von Moltke stood barehead and smiling on tbe balcony, saluting the enthusiastic thousands to the end, though Count Waldersee made many attempts to bring him indoors out of the cold, damp atmosphere. BEGINNING Or HIS CAREER. Moltke was 22 when he entered the Prus sian service, and the next ten vears were spent by him in an unwearied study of the art of war. He first joined the military academy at Berlin, and subsequently went with bis regiment to Frankfort-on-the-Oder. In 1832 his greatattainrrents brought iiiui nui miuce, ana ne was appointed on the general staff. Three years later be visited the East, where he was presented to Sultan Mahmoud who asked him to remain in Turkev and take part in the military reforms, of which the army stood greatly in need. The Prus sian Government, anxious to oblige the Porte, extended his leave of absence, and, aided by Chossef Pacha, he undertooK the l?borious task of reorganizing the Turkish army. Carefully he inspected forts and bat teries, thoroughly he strove to remedy the many faults in the Turkish system of de fense, and unweariedly he labored to re model tbe army alter the Prussian method. In 1839 he took part in the Svrian cam paign, aiding tbe Turks in their strmrtrle against Mehemet AH, of Egvpt, and his adopted son, Ibrahim Pacha. The war oyer, he Dade farewell to his Oriental admirers and returned to Prussia, where he soon afterward published a graphic account of his Turkish experiences. THE FRANCO-GERMAN WAR. Tor many vears France hail h.n .,., . sore to Prussia, and Europe foresaw that their mutual jealonsv must eventually end in a terrible war. King William, Bismarck and Molke knew that the Emperor of the French had long been preparing lor a de cicive conflict with Prussia, and were nat urally determined that he should not catch Prussia off her guard. Moltke in his Sile Bian retreat had drawn up plans for the im pending war which no tactician or General ever surpassed. Bismarck, the grett polit ical wire-puller, watched the enemy as a cat watches a mouse, and had his cl.tws ready for tbe moment of action. King William reljing wholly on the judgment and skill of his two great servants, the statesman and the strategist, put bis. trust ia Providence and bis army and carefully watched France as she rushed onward to her doom. When at last war was declared by Napoleon, Moltke heard the news with the utmost sangfroid. The story goes -that it was announced to him at a late hour, when he was in bed, and that be roused him self momentarily and said to the mes senger: "Oh, very well; the third portlolio on the left," Long before he had drawn and filed away all the necessary plans for tbe impending campaign, and wnen the critical moment came he was able to sleep as soundly as though nothing had hap pened. Years before he had adopted a military policy and to that policy he adhered through out his life. In his published report on the Austro-ltalian war ot 1859, he says: "Cer tainly the grave reasons against the hopes of a successful execution of his plan did not escape thesagacityof the Emperor Uapoleon, butbe could rely on his army and he acted rapidly by surprise vigorously; and he who acts in this way generally reaps ad vantages which tbe temporizing lose." CROWNED WITH HONORS. For his unrivaled services in the war with France General Moltke received an other national gift and was also created a Count and appointed Chief Marshal of the German Empire. In 1872 he was made a life member in the upper house of the Reichstag. An old man by this time, he saw clearly that his active work in this world was done. Germany, united and omnipotent, would never again call on hiui to protect her against arrrogant neighbors. Instead of the cannon and the sword, the ploughshare and tbe spade would come into play, and instead of spending his nights in evolving astute strategical plans. Field Marshal von Moltke might safely devote his time to those liberal studies which have always had such an attraction for him. He accepted the situation without a mur mur and earnestlv devoted his attention to bis pacific duties. A tall, thin old man, of most gentle demeanor and all tbe attributes oi a thoroughbred gentleman, he has always been the idol of the German armv. The soldiers speak of him fondly as "Father Moltke,"and are never wearied of lauding him for his learning and unerring military prognostications. His taciturnity and lin guistic attainments are also a matter of comment among them, and they often speak of him as "the man who is silent in seven languages." A GREAT WHIST PLATER. At theaters and public concerts he is seldom seen and only appears at court on the most urgent occasions, much preferring home life to the gayeties of society. He is very fond of whist and often plays wilh his nephew, Captain vou Moltke, and other friends. Even during the Franco-German war he indulged in his favorite pastime and required Colonel de Cleer, his Adjutant, to provide him with suitable players. The officers of the general staff would report the news to him as he sat playing, and when Ins turn came to go out of the game he would follow the reported movements of the enemy on a map spread out in the next room and plan with mathematical precision the required counter movements. He was deep in a game on August 25, 1870, when news was brought that McMahon was marching toward the Mense. Report after report made the enemy's intention clearer to him, and late in the evening he went to King William and told him that the army must march, not to Paris, as had been intended, but to the Meuse. This im portant resolution, so swiftly taken, which led to the colossal victory of Sedan, is the best proof of how quickly the Field Marshal could grasp a completely altered situation and act accordingly. As chief of the general staff be spent much time in tbe official building on the Koenigs plalz ot Berlin. His parliamentary func tions also required his attendance' at the capital. Seldom missing a sittinr. he rare ly rose to speak, and then only on military questions and after much preparation. His vo:ce was un'ortunately too weak to pene trate to the remote parts of the house, and therefore on his manifesting an intention to speak the members have invariably quitted their seats and assembled around the tribune. When the sitting was over he re turned on foot to the general staff building, entering, not by tbe grand hall, bnt by a small doorway in the left wing which was intended only for servants. Then crossing the court and mounting a winding stair case he arrived at his official suite of apart ments, completely furnished by the State in accordance with bis instructions. AN IMPORTANT TIME In the Development of the Southwest Petroleum Territory. THE GREAT INTEREST INVOLVED 0ns Contractor Hakes a Claim Which Seems to Break the Kecord. LATEST ELP0RTS PROM ALL FIELDS NOT LIRE BISMARCK. Von Moltke, indeed, would not be the Admirable Crichton that he is If he had not minded his own business so well. Unlike Bismarck, whose work necessarily brought him into frequent and not always harmoni ous contact with the other political leaders in Europe, he has held himself sternly aloof from all political complications, knowing well that, when the time lor action came, the country would not find him un prepared. Burnished are bis weapons, well trained are his soldiers; whatever might be the result of political misunderstandings and bickerings, he has always been alert and ready to march to the front. Not that he loved war, as too manv of tbe world's conquerors have loved it. On the contrary, he loved peace, but peace with honor. For tbe sake of his beloved country he has gone forth to many battlefields and has spent many days and nights in un wearied study, and, old as he is, he would unsheathe his sword and prove himself once more the greatest living strategist in case any power should be rash enough to insult ixiu crerman .empire. Happily it is not likely that anv such in sult will be offered. The Field Marshal has passed the last 20 years in peace, and the few years that yet remain to him will as suredly not be disturbed by the thunder of cannon and the fierce music of battle. Ger many is at peace with all the world, and, energetic as her young Emperor is, he has not -as yet given any evidence of a desire to flesh his maiden sword on a field ot battle. THE SUNDAY CELEBRATION. The von Moltke celebration to-day was a magnificent success. Although it rained all the morning the streets along which the Emperor was to drive were crowded at an early hour. At 9 o'clock 300 schoolchil dren gathered at the house of Marshal von Moltke, where they sang nymns and patriotic songs. The Marshal came to the window and said a-few words of thanks telling his serenaders that music was an importani factor in the education of tbe citizens. The Emperor started for von JUbltke's palace at 12:30, driving iu a coach drawn b-v six horses. His Majesty carried with him a rich field marshal's staff which he person ally presented to von Moltke, whose palace was crowded with the roval personages of the nation. The Empress Frederick and her daughters were prominent among those who were most earnest in their congratula tions. The Grand Duchess of Baden sent the writing case that belonged to the late Emperor William I. PrinceBismarcktele graphed his congratulations, which von Moltke answered in his own hand writing. During the reception a congratulatory cable was received from New York, and was read aloud bv the Marshal, whn . marked that many "of the former helpmates to his glory were now living in America. Between early morning and 6 o'clock to night 5,000 dispatches and cables were received. The past two or three days have been im portant ones in the field situation through out the Southwest district. Taking tbe wide scope of territory embraced in opera tions, there is no period within the last de cade when so many important interests have been involved from as many different points. In this respect Wildwood still maintains tbe lead, where the average operator seems to have anchored great hopes and faith. The Ringheisen well has practically changed the aspect of the Southwest line,'.but to what degree remains a revelation of the drill. Fri day night, about 12 or 1 o'clock, the drill en tered a pay streak and the well commenced at the rate of four or five barrels an hour, which rate of production has been since kept up. Drilling was immediately sus pended and tbe work of moving out tbe boiler began, which would not be accom plished in all details, ready for drilling again, until to-morrow morning. Tbe most important question now concerning tbe well is will it follow in the wake of tbe Harbush gusher or will it only turn ont tbe cropping of the rock on this lime and make only an ordinary producer? At pres ent writing there is no definite information as to just where the oil was found, which is the important fact necessary in drawing a conclusion. BREAKS THE RECORD. The contractor claims that there was 18 feet of interior dark sand without a break, when the drill run into a nice streak of white pebble where the oil was found. If this is the case it breaks the record of tbe Harbush wells, and would seem to indicate, as above stated, a cropping out or a small depth of prolific sand. On the other hand, the owners oninionate that the 18 feet of dark and inferior sand was only the slag, and that the regular sand bad just been tapped. At all events the Ringheisen is a paying investment and W. E. Griffith & Co. are to be congratulated upon their success. Tbe next 21 hours' drilling is awaited with no little interest. The Marshall Oil Company and Haily wells remain unchanged. Foreman Ander son said to The Dispatch scout that the well was 80 feet in tbe sand and no change for tbe better. Forst & Greenlee No. 12, Rolse house, was making 35 barrels an hour Satur day afternoon. The McClay casser was sold to-day to Spang, Chaltant & Co. for a good round price. The production of the field is estimated at 5,600 barrels a day. There ,is no other news of important information from the field. There is no abatement in interests in the Jones & Patterson well on the McCurdy farm. Pipe line reports make the well doing 31 barrels an hour.but tbe owners say they can increase this output by deeper drilling. All available territory'has been picked up, and if the well sbows staying qualities considerable new work will fol low. Billy Graham & Co.'s well at Bridge ville, on the Donaldson farm, done 20 inches Saturday in a 250 tank, which indicates that the well when settled will make a 30 barrel producer. At Brnsh creek, on the Jones farm, Ackerly & Samuel had the good luck to score a 100 barrel well. It was reported Saturday that Painter ISros. had sold their gas well in the Bakerstown field, on the Hughes farm, for 518,000. NO NEW FEATURE. In the 100-foot field nothing of import has transpired within the past 24 hours. Guck ert & Steele's Humphey farm well is doing 20 barrels an hour. Operations at Zeleinople continue about tbe same, and during the week one or two fair producers came in, which are regarded as unimportant. At Saxonburg the Jefferson Center Oil Com pany's big well is still holding up at 35 bar rels'are hour. There will soon be two other wells in this locality due, one belonging to Iman & McBride, on the Webber farm, and tbe other one on the Alexander "Welsh, owned by Sheilline & Co. Lenona & Co., on the Ohl farm, com pleted a small well a few days since. Hart man is drilling two on the Birelev. and the Jefferson Oil Company are drilling one on thesame farm, near their "gusher. Christie & Younker are drilling one well in the same 'locality, and Warren McCleary & Co. have a rig ready for business on th'e Joe Logan farm. Manning & Montmorris have not cut a conspicuous figure in the last week, and nothing but routine work and ordinary wells can be reported. The latest acquisition to tbe Belmont field on the Ohio side of the river is Messrs. Ackerly and Sammel's strike on tbe Hender shot farm, located due north of the Brow well about 500 feet. This well unquestion ably opened up some new territorv, and begins to make the theory of these practicle operators look good to the northeast from the old Belmont developments. The well is flowing from 65 to 75 barrels through the casing. The same party, half mile east of the Hendershot, are down 800 feet on the R. Green. Smith & Allen, on the Hendershot, 1,000 feet north of the produce, have started the drill. The well in advance to the north east of the Foresha farm should get the sand the last of tbe week. This is' an im portant well. Manderville & Nellie, in advance of the above well miles, will get in the last of this week or the first of next the chaetiees riELD. During the last week the Chartiers field menced spudding; also Fisher, on the Guthrie, are down 300 feet. Fisher Bros, will have three wells come in next week on Painter. Dixon & Crawford's two wells on the Work farm are dowo about 1,500 feet. Zinkman & Brvan, on the Bryan, are in the Hundred-foot. Lourayer, on the Caugbey, came in this week a good, fair well. The Stephenson, near Singer's, will reach the sand about Wednesday of next week. Fish er Bros, aud Robinson & Co. will start two wells tome distance in the advance nextv week. The past week has reported more failures than any month since the field has been opened up. Work will still move along with quite a number of new wells on the advance line during the next two weeks.

All the rumors to the effect Jthat the Southern Pacific Company had made or was about to make a deal with the Atchison and other big roads to keep out of San Francisco would appear to lack foundation. The line of the Santa Fe Company's road to San Fran cisco has been finally located for 70 miles north of the Atlantic and Pacific Railway. This information comes from a member of the engineers' corps, which has just com pleted the great work. The line, as finally located, begins at Rogers, the water-tank station, about 20 miles east of Mojave. From there the final survey has been completed to Crain's Lake, 70 miles from Rodgers, on the north side of the Antelope Valley. From Fresno, Cal., to San Francisco the road recently surveved and called the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley will be used into the coast's metropolis.
