pink WHISPERS SAID BINGHAM
FIIPPANT NAME FOR HUGHES
MAY MAKE TROUBLE.
Magistrates Apt to Take It to Gov

Police Commissioner.

NEW YORK. November 2S-"'Did Com
missioner Bingham refer to Gov. Hughes
as Pink Whiskers or His Whiskers?' "
This question is ag;tating the city
magistrates of Brooklyn. Queens and
Richmond. already arraigned against the
police commissioner for his alleged in
reference in the conduct of their courts.
AS he marter is likely to be taken up to
Gov Hughes it is possible that Commits
sioner Bingham's alleged fiippant appel
la ion may be included in the brief against
him.
Magistrate Hyiand was designated by
the board of magistrates as chairman
of committee to wait upon Commits
sioner Bingham and protest against his
lates: order allowing only one police
man in each court ~ serve warrants.
The commissioner is said to have replied
plainly and tartly that he was going To
run things his OWN way as long as he
was police commissioner Of the city OF
New York
Magistrate Hyland then gently sue-
gested that the governor Of the state
has the power OF removal of the police
commissioner and hat it might he nee
essary for the magistrates to make an
appeal in higher quarter.
so YOU are going Ia go To Pink
W Aiskers about it," asked Commissioner
Bingham. according to a reliable report.
Another version had il that Commits
sioner Bingham said:
so YOU are going TO take ii up With
His WhiSkerS. eh?
At any rate. the interview was alb
ruDtly terminated and IA the meeting
of the board of city magistrates. where
Magistrate Hyland made his report Of
but no definite action about an appeal to
the governor was taken.

Middies on the Dope.

BY the foregoing it would look as
though the Navy had the stronger COM
bination. in view of its tie with Harvard
which is generally rated as the champion
eleven of the east. There are many, now
ever. who feel that the soldiers have been
masking their batteries for a supreme ell
fort Certainly they have shown little or
nothing of the tricks of up-to-.ate 1907
ball in the preliminary contests, Whlie
on the other hand the middieS have been
noted for the variety OF their attack.
There are many who think the Army mas
saved all the best plays to spring on the
NAVY and has been content TO devote
mos; of the work in contests to develop
ing ;he defense.
Some eleventh hour changes have been
made in the Army lineup, and they un-
doubt eddy add TO its power to great ex-
tent. StearnS, at right end. and Pulien,

better men in the east in their respective
positions. Hyatt. at quarter, is also
new occupant OF the position Pullen, a
star of the first magnitude, will be pitted
against Capt. Northcroft, a BILE
tackle. and it will be surprising If there
is not a great battle on their wing of the
line.
There is little 10 choose between the
teams in the matter of weight, and both
are in tiptop physical condition. The
Navy has a little better in avoirdupois.
but this is not so big asset as 1t once
was Everything points ID a brilliant
struggle. and one OF the biggest crowds
of the year will watch it.
The official lineup of the Army and
Navy teams was made public last night

This is how they will face each other:
