In a letter,1891 Feb 6, Charles Anderson Dana writes to Theophilus Carey Callicot discussing in detail the impossibility of [David Bennett] Hill being Senator of the U.S., Governor of New York, and a candidate for the Presidency at the same time; the necessity of giving up either the Senatorship or the Governorship to save the Presidential possibility; the impossibility of [Stephen Grover] Cleveland being elected; it being better for Cleveland to be nominated and beaten than for Governor Hill to commit political suicide. In a letter, 1893 Sep 20, to S. S. McClure, Dana discusses in detail an enclosed manuscript by Germany's most important story writer, [Hermann] Sudermann.
