Historians use evidence from primary and secondary sources and oral histories to answer their questions. They have to choose what information is most important and trustworthy as evidence. Historical evidence is not always simple. Sometimes what historians thought to be true turns out to be false.

Contact [7]

Answer:

1. Homestead strike - C. Seven union members and three Pinkerton workers died.

2. Pullman strike - A. The cause was a cut in wages without a reduction in rent.

3. Great Railroad strike - Governors from 10 states called in militia to stop violence.

4. Haymarket Riot - B. Several Chicago police officer were killed by a bomb, an act that was blamed on eight innocent men.

Explanation:

The Homestead strike was an industrial strike that ended in a battle between strikers and the Amalgamated Associaton of Iron and Steel workers, and private security agents (Pinkerton National Detective Agency). The battle occurred on July 6; in the aftermath of this battle, William Pinkerton stated before the Congress that three Pinkerton agents died in the strike, but the total number of agents who died was seven.

The Pullman strike was a nationwide strike in the United States; it was against the Pullman Company, the main railroads, and the federal government of the United States. It began when the company lowered wages, but it did not reduce rents. There were other reasons too, for example, the excessive water and gas rates, and the refusal by the company to allow workers to buy and own houses.

The Great Railroad Strike of 1877 began in West Virginia after the cutting out of wages for the third time in a year. This strike ended after 45 days when it was put down by local and state militias and federal troops.

The Haymarket Riot was the aftermath of a bombing that took place at a labor demonstration on May 4, 1886, at Haymarket Square in Chicago. It began as a strike for an eight-hour workday, but an unknown person threw a bomb at the police and killed seven police officers and at least four civilians. This act was blamed on eight anarchists; the evidence was that one of them may have built the bomb, but none of those on the trial had thrown it.
