Alfred r. Edgerton OF indiana aud
William Il. Trenholm OF south
Carolina Appointed.

Altfeu ne E1KeftOn OF Indiana and
William Il. Trenholm OF south
Carolina Appointed.
WARRINGTON, Nov. 4.-The President
to-day appointed Alfred P. Edgerton of
Fort Wayne, Ind, Civil Service commits
sioner in place of Dorman b Eaton, re-
signed. and William L. Trenholm OF
Charleston, s. O., in the place of John
NJ. Gregory, resigned.
Mr.. Edgerton was in early life clerk
in mercantile house in New York City,
but while still young man went TO
northern Ohio as the agent Of the North
ern Land Company. He then served four
years in Congress as Democrat, and was
the financial agent of the state of Ohio
with an Office in New York City. In 1858
he moved TO Indiana, and in 1868 was the
Democratic candidate for lieutentant-
governor, Vice President Hendricks being
the candidate for governor. They were
both defeated. As a Democrat he re-
fused to support Greeley in 1879, and
came within six votes of being nominated
for Vice President on the O'Connor ticket
over John Quincy Adams, Jr. He
was then nominated as the straightout
Democratic candidate for governor
of Indiana, but declined in a letter
which urged all Democrats to
support Mr.. Hendricks, and the latter was
elected. For Is years he has been unani-
mously elected by the common council of
Fort Wayne as the president of the board
of education of that city, and by appoint
ment of Ex-Governor Porter, is director
of Purdue University. He has been en-
gagged in many successful business enter
t,riaao aud fC in, aouxr pfrpr..natannau He
Is practical student of public affairs.
He was for many years an intimate friend
and associate of Chief Justice Waite, who,
with Senator Henry b. Payne, Governor
Gray of Indiana, Vice President Hend-
ricks, and many leading citizens of Ohio
and Indiana, warmly endorsed him rs
possessing qualities peculiarly fitting him
for the work of the Civil Service Commits
sion, with which he is in full sympathy.
Mr.. Trenholm is commission mer.
chant, about so years of age, and was
warmly endorsed for the appointment by
leading friends of the Civil Service re
form movement north and south. He is
the son of the late Secretary Trenholm of
the treasury of the Southern Confed-
eracy, and has been brought into promi-
nenco lately by his address before
bankers conventions ON the silver ques-
ton, and his writings on the same sub,
ject, which have attracted wide attention.
Mr.. Trenholm has always been IL Demo
crat.
The resignation of DIR. Gregory was
accepted by the President, to take effect
on the appointment of his successor, but
it is probable that he will remain in office
until Mr.. Trenholm is ready to take his
place. Mr.. Edgerton, who succeeds Mr..
Eaton, is in this city, but has not yet
been officially notified of his appointment.
He will not be able to enter upon the dis
charge of the duties of the office for ut
least two weeks yet.
