Make use of the classifiers already provided to you. I believe this is what you are looking for:

    private static String combineNERSequence(String text) {

    String serializedClassifier = "edu/stanford/nlp/models/ner/english.all.3class.distsim.crf.ser.gz";      
    AbstractSequenceClassifier classifier = null;
    try {
        classifier = CRFClassifier
                .getClassifier(serializedClassifier);
    } catch (ClassCastException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    System.out.println(classifier.classifyWithInlineXML(text));

    //  FOR TSV FORMAT  //
    //System.out.print(classifier.classifyToString(text, "tsv", false));

    return classifier.classifyWithInlineXML(text);
}
