CHARGE AGAINST STORER.

During the final Test Match Bannerman, the Australian umpire, reported Storer for making an objectionable remark towards him. Storer said 'You are a cheat, and you know it.' Worral corroborated this, and also said he heard Storer say 'You are making1 the win assured for Australia.'
