Explanation:

The Pulman strike was a nationwide conflict between unions and railway companies in 1894 in the United States. The conflict began in Pullman, Illinois, when on May 11, 1894, about 3,000 Pullman employees began a wild strike in response to lower wages and halted all movement west of Chicago. At the height of the events, in which the American Union of Railroads was the organizing force, the first national union in the United States led by Eugene Debbs, up to 250,000 people in 27 states participated in the fight against railroad companies on the part of the railroad.  

President Cleveland sent federal troops to Chicago to stop the strike, which sparked a debate in his own office regarding compliance with the US Constitution.
