GREAT BINGEN AND NATIVE CHIEF. [Specie to the 'Stab.’] CHRISTCHURCH. .Emuary 27, It is doubtful whether Withers will be well enough to drive Great Bingen in his match with Native Chief on February 11, for Great Bingen is a strong horse and his driver must be a fit man. The match between these two horses is gaining wider interest each day, and several sensational half-mile bursts by Native Chief of late have brought him practically level with Great Bingen as far as favoritism is concerned, 'ft is not an impossible, task for Native Chief to reel off half a mile in a minute, if lie does t his in the match with Great Bingen he will keep the champion doing his best all the way. Although F. G. Holmes has driven 'Native Chief in jiis most recent engagements, J. J. Kennerley will told the reins in this match.
