The Sherman Anti-Trust Act was passed by Congress, with the support of President Benjamin Harrison, in 1890. Such act declared illegal any business combination that sought to restrain trade , in an attempt to curb the growth of monopolies.  

The Sherman Anti-Trust Act was used when the workers of the American Railway Union were on a strike, known as the Pullman Strike, which occurred in 1894 when George Pullman, the president of the Pullman Palace Car Company, decided to reduce the salaries of his workers. As a result of the application of the Trust Act on such conflict the president of the American Railway Union, Eugene Debs, was arrested.

What was the main reason the Philadelphia convention rejected Hamilton’s plans
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3<em>) The plan resembled the British system of government</em>

Explanation:

The Philadelphia Convention is seen as one of the most important events in US history. By the end of the convention, all 13 colonies had agreed to a Constitution that would set the basis for the young country.

However, the convention is a long process with delegates from all over the country presenting their own vision and plans for how the country should run.

Alexander Hamilton's plan was based on a strong federal government and a lower and upper house. Lower house would be elected directly by the people, while the upper house would be composed of officials chosen by the elected members.

The plan was quickly dubbed as the "British Plan'' since it closely resembled the governance system of Great Britain. It was soon rejected by the convention on these basis.
