WORRIED BY CALCUTTA DERBY SWEEP.
Worry over the Calcutta Dorby Sweepstake is said, by his son, to have been largely responsible for the death of Mr. James Sutters, the well-known commission agent and a director of the Victoria Club, which took place recently in a nursing home at Windsor.
He was 67 years of age. For many years Mr. J. Butters had con- trolled an extensive betting bust nese, with headquarters at the Vie toria Club.
