Utha, with Vermont, was the only

Army on Second Route.
In 1870 the second German army
centering on Paris. was snr&edseacross
the frontier not far from Strassburg.
And now comes an unofficial report
that this younger Count Won Moltke
has sent his second army into the
enemy's territory by almost the, same
route.
Truly it would seem that the tall,
gaunt old soldier who was the mailed
hand OF William the Great did his
work so well more than forty years
aso that the younger generation has
found little in his plans to change.
And IL will be interesting to see IL his
son, now the German chief OF STAFF,
has inherited the genius of his father.
that Prussian man Of iron" of whom
1t was said that he knew how to be
silent In seven languages.
Now Has Enemy in Rear.
But with all the strange parallels
between the campaign Of 1870 and
that which has just begun there is
one tremendous difference and one
which may well prove fatal even to
plans prepared by the greatest OF Ger
man strategists.
In 1870 Prussia and her allied states
had only one enemy To- fight. There was
indeed some fear that Austria might
give aid To Napoleon III, but that was
never realized. And at worst the elder
Won Moltke could send his armies for
ward with no danger that his country,
stripped of troops, would be invaded
from the rear.
Now the son must facets already
facing - exactly that contingency.
While his armies are pushing for
ward for the invasion of France the
Russian forces are already across the
German border to the east. The peril
which Germany faces would seem to
be more than doubled. one wonders
whether the plans In "the upper pigeon
hole on the rights OF my desk" provide
for that.
1t is, no doubt, that certainty Of
Russian invasion which is responsible
for the fiery haste with which the Ger
mans are pushing their invasion OF
France. Their hope would seem to be
to crush the French foe before the
Russian bear has time to
strike.
Germany would indeed seem to have
need of careful plans and OF all the
military genius of Won Moltke.

ON TO PARIS; SAME STRATEGY
USED BY Won MOLTKE IN 1870
NOW ATTEMPTED BY HIS SON

They tell Of the field marshal, Count
Won Moltke, that when on that fateful
July day Of 1870 an excited aide burst
into his private office and gasped out
the word that France had declared war,
the old warrior hardly looked up from
the documents he was reading.
Upper pigeonhole on the right hand
side OF my desk" he said. And there.
in fact, was the carefully worked
out plan for the invasion of France
which was soon carried through to
a successful issue. Every contingency
had been provided for i'm the Won
Moltke plans, which represented the
careful labor and study OF years. For
every possible move OF the French
army a check had been provided and
II was largely due to the patient and
thorough study Of the great chief

New Won Moltke Commands.
That was forty -four years ago. Now
as far as may be judged from the
broken and scattered dispatches which
are allowed to filter through the cen
sored telegraph wires. history is about
TO repeat Itself In a most remarkable
way.
Now, as then, IT is Count Won Moltke
son of the great field marshal-who
is chief Of STAFF of the German army.
Now, rs then, the mobilization OF the
German troops has been accomplished
with startling celebrity and already two
great armies-if the dispatches are
CorrcCt-havc been thrown across the
French border.
And 1t would almost appear as if
the son had simply taken out again
his great fathers plan of campaicn
from its dusty pigeonhole and was
starting the German legions on to
Paris over almost the same routes
which their predecessors Travelled in
1870.
