He was the brother of the hated Dmitri Feodorovich Trepov, involved in the repression following the events of the 1905 discontent. Alexander was educated in His Majesty's Page Corps.

Aleksei Aleksandrovich Bobrinsky, the Minister of Agriculture had to give up his post. Nikolai Pokrovsky, on Foreign Affairs, was appointed on 30 November. Trepov informed Alexander Protopopov that he wished him to give up the Ministry of the Interior and take over that of Commerce. Protopopov refused. Trepov had made the dismissal of Protopopov an indispensable condition of his accepting the presidency of the Council.〔(The Russian Revolution by Richard Pipes, p. 261 )〕 The Tsar agreed on the 23rd. The Tsarina tried to save Protopopov in his influential position in the ministry of interior, and hated Trepov and Makarov.〔The Fall of the Russian Empire: The Story of the Last of the Romanovs and ... by Edmund A. Walsh S.J., p. 115, 116, 297. ()〕 On 27 November Trepov travelled to Stavka. Trepov threatened to resign on the next day. On 2 December, on his appearance in the Imperial Duma, Trepov was loudly hissed at by the Socialists.〔B. Pares, p. 396; Bolshevism — The Enemy of Political and Industrial Democracy by John Spargo, p. 97. ()〕 On 7 December the cabinet demanded that Protopopov should go to the Emperor and resign, but remained at his post at the request of the Tsar. Trepov having failed to eliminate Protopopov tried to bribe Rasputin.〔Nicholas and Alexandra: The Tragic, Compelling Story of the Last Tsar and ... by Robert K. Massie ()〕 With the help of general A.A. Mosolov, his brother-in-law, Trepov offered a substantial amount of money, a bodyguard and a house to Rasputin, when he would leave politics.〔(E. Radzinsky (2010) ''The Rasputin File'', p. ); B. Pares, p. 395;〕 The Tsarina was informed on 13 December and wrote a furious letter against Trepov. On 12 December (N.S.) the German Chancellor, Bethmann-Hollweg, in a speech in the Reichstag, offered to open negotiations with the Entente in a neutral country. Woodrow Wilson planned to bring the United States into the war, when the Germans attempted to negotiate peace with the allies. On December 16, 1916 (O.S.) the Duma was closed for Christmas until 28 December (which is 29 December until January 9, 1917 N.S.). On the day of opening a hesitating prince Nikolai Golitsyn became the successor of Trepov, who retired. According to B. Pares Trepov probably was a curator at the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, where he met the Tsar on February 1, 1917. After the October revolution he emigrated via Helsinki to France from where he supported the White Army as a monarchist. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alexander Trepov」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
