At least 34 were noted as killed, while the leader Eugene V. Debs had gotten arrested. It was a big mess, and it was all because the federal troops had gotten involved.

Answer:

When business declined in 1894, Pullman cut jobs, wages and hours of work, but did not lower rents or prices in his city. The fact that he did not lower rents, service fees and product prices led his workers to strike, a violent contest that was dissolved by federal troops sent by President Grover Cleveland against the opinion of the governor of Illinois John P. Altgeld.

A federal commission that studied the case of the 1894 strike, ruled that Pullman's paternalism was partially guilty of the problem, and defined the city of Pullman as contrary to American culture. In 1898, the Illinois Supreme Court forced the Pullman company to dispose of its urban properties, annexing them to the city of Chicago.

The animosity against Pullman remained, and when he died in 1897, he was buried at night in Graceland Cemetery in a lead-lined coffin with steel reinforcements in a concrete vault. Several tons of cement were poured to prevent his body from being exhumed and desecrated by labor activists.

His position as president of the company was taken by Robert Todd Lincoln, lawyer, former secretary of war and son of President Abraham Lincoln.

nikdorinn [45]
The act was about ensuring people have voting rights and preventing states from preventing voting rights in various ways such as having literacy tests or voting taxes or anything similar. One effect can be that it enabled for all people to vote regardless of color or origin, and another is that it enabled minorities and immigrants to vote too because it enabled minorities who didn't know English that well to vote using bilingual ballots.
