William Alexander McArthur

William Alexander McArthur

William Alexander McArthur (1857-7 June 1923), was a British Liberal politician.

McArthur was elected to Parliament for Buckrose at the 1886 general election, with a majority of a single vote, but was unseated on a scrutiny being held and the seat was awarded to the Conservative candidate, Christopher Sykes. He entered Parliament for St Austell in a 1887 by-election, a seat he held until 1908. He served in the Liberal administrations of William Gladstone and the Earl of Rosebery as a Junior Lord of the Treasury from 1892 to 1895.

McArthur died in June 1923.
