LEYLAND WITHDRAWS ACCUSATION. Third Test Sensation. IRONMONGER CLEARED OF SUSPICION AT ADELAIDE. United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received January 14, 1.15 p.m.) SYDNEY, January 14. While Leyland was batting in the Test he asked Ironmonger whether he was using resin on the ball. Ironmonger denied that he was doing so. Leyland then demanded to know whether Ironmonger had any on his handkerchief, which he asked to be permitted to inspect. Leyland also spoke to Woodfull, and Ironmonger then produced his handkerchief, which was saturated with eucalyptus to keep the flies away. Leyland immediately apologised. The use of resin is barred by the Marylebone Club, and the ban is endorsed by the Australian Board of Control.
