Brief Explanations

The Pullman Strike of 1894 started when three workers from a delegation were fired by George Pullman. The workers had presented a list of grievances to Pullman, and in response, he fired three of the delegates. A recession led to lay - offs and wage cuts, but the immediate trigger for the strike was the firing of these three workers. The union did not vote for a wildcat strike initially, and workers' attempts to move out of the company town were not the start of the strike.

Answer:

A. three workers from a delegation were fired by George Pullman
