This chart was taken from Uniformen europëischer Armeen, the ranks are fairly straight forward so I haven't translated them.
The General (einer Waffengattung) would be an arm of services general.
I believe the chart gives the basic idea,

Chris,
The uniformen europäischer armeen seems to have a general lack of interest in the great unwashed when it comes tt illustrating the rank insignia for before 1910, also the art work is not particularly detailed.
Its quite difficult to find a reliable English reference for German OR's pre 1900.
Working on it! may take some time as I can just abuot manage to get fed and drunk with my limited German.
Regards
Wf
