...if employers will consider employees as thoroughly essential to industrial success as capital, and thus take labor into consultation at proper times, much of the severity of strikes can be tempered and their number reduced.”
US STRIKE COMMISSION / 1894
The Pullman Strike and consequent boycott have assumed the proportions of the greatest battle between labor and capital that has even been inaugurated in the United States.”
NEW YORK TRIBUNE / JUNE 29, 1894
From the Haymarket Affair in 1886 spurred by the fight for the eight-hour day, to the Pullman railroad strike in 1894 over corporate greed and poverty, to the Memorial Day Massacre during the “Little Steel” strikes in 1937, Chicago’s rich labor history stems back to the formative years of our nation’s economy and the modern labor movement.”

What rights do you think workers should have?
GL-07.00-600
The United States is in the grips of an economic crisis.
Twelve out of every 100 Americans are unemployed. The president’s popularity is plummeting. Sound familiar?
Throughout its existence, this country has faced a series of recessions and depressions, including the Panic of 1893. In the wake of this downturn, labor organizations, including the newly formed American Railway Union (ARU), sought to protect workers from slashed wages and lost jobs. The ARU prepared for a clash with the powerful General Managers’ Association (GMA), which included executives from the 24 railroads centered in or terminating at Chicago. GMA members implemented system-wide wage cuts and formed a united front against challenges from labor.
S N A P S H O T :
By the spring of 1893, the American economy was in disarray. Railroad shares, which had been the driving forces behind an investment boom in the early 1890s, were now on the verge of collapse.
On May 5, 1893, the bubble burst, and the Panic of 1893 struck. The day’s trading on the stock exchange floor was captured in this illustration from Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper.
Political cartoons routinely satirized the multiple sides of the economy and leadership. President Grover Cleveland is shown with his Secretary of the Treasury, a senator, and several representatives repairing a statue labeled “Prosperity.”
As often happens during times of crisis, politicians disagreed on the best ways to address the economic panic.
A little more than a year ago the car shops at Pullman were in a most prosperous condition, work was plenty, wages were high … Then came the great panic and depression of last summer … the only hope of getting orders was by bidding for work at [low prices], and this, of course, necessitated a reduction in the wages of the employees at Pullman.”
GEORGE PULLMAN / OFFICIAL STATEMENT TO “EXPLAIN THE POSITION
OF HIS COMPANY” IN 1894
GL-07.01-100
Frank Leslie’s Illustrated published this illustration of a despairing striker’s wife and child on July 26, 1894. The caption states, “...
the father and husband [is] led away to prison, leaving the wife destitute and helpless … to face as best she may the consequences of a misguided course for which she was in no wise responsible.” How do you feel about this caption’s interpretation of the strike’s effects?
This July 21, 1894 Harper’s Weekly illustration shows police clashing with a group of protestors near 43rd Street in Chicago.

US Attorney General Richard Olney, a lawyer for the railroad industry, convinced President Grover Cleveland that military action to end the strike was a necessary move. When it seemed that federal troops could not gain control, Chicago Mayor John Hopkins asked Governor Altgeld to send in the National Guard. State troops guarded Hotel Florence and other town sites during the strike.
The Pullman Company cuts wages and lays off manufacturing employees. On-board staff remained unchanged. Rents and other living costs remain the same in the town of Pullman.
Eugene Debs, secretary-treasurer of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, joins other dissident brotherhood officers to establish the American Railway Union (ARU), dedicated to uniting all rail workers—though the ARU did not replace the skilled railroad brotherhoods, which remained intact.
Over 18,000 workers are on strike and other local unions began striking as well.
Within the next few weeks, nearly all railroads out of Chicago shut down.
Nearly 260,000 railroad workers join the strike. National commerce is crippled.
A majority of Pullman employees join the American Railway Union.
Over the objections of Debs, the ARU bars African Americans from joining.
President Grover Cleveland and US Attorney General Richard Olney—a former lawyer for railroad owners—secure an injunction, or court ordered directive, to stop all strike activities, arguing that the strike and boycott violate the Sherman Antitrust Act and illegally disrupt the US Mail.
The Pullman Company fires three worker representatives for voicing their grievances to management. That night, the workers’ committee unanimously votes to strike.
Chicago Tribune declares the strike has “attained the dignity of an insurrection.”
John Egan of the GMA admits the railroads are “fought to a standstill.” President Cleveland dispatches federal troops to end the strike.
A delegation of strikers from Pullman appeals to the ARU at their National Convention held in Chicago. Seeing the far-reaching effects on rail workers across the country and George Pullman’s unwillingness to negotiate, Debs agrees to support the strike, despite feeling that confronting the powerful General Managers’ Association (GMA) is a lost cause.
The ARU calls upon workers across the country to boycott Pullman railroad cars.
Troops arrive in Chicago.
The strike and boycott, which had been peaceful, turn violent. Across the country, railroad equipment is damaged and physical violence results in the death of protestors. The town of Pullman remains quiet.
Authorities arrest Eugene Debs and others for conspiracy to block the federal mail. Federal marshals raid the ARU office. Protests continue in Chicago and across the country.
The ARU boycott officially begins when switchmen on a number of Chicago rail lines refused to switch Pullman cars. They are fired, leading other workers to protest.
The Pullman Company reopens its factory operations. Management rehires most workers who were on strike on the condition that they do not join a unionunion but blacklists many who supported the strike at its other shops. In the end, the strike cost the railroads millions of dollars. The use of military force and court-ordered injunctions strengthened the tools corporations and government officials used to impede unionization.

Illinois National Guard troops stood guard near Hotel Florence during the strike. Despite his concerns with military action, Governor John Altgeld ordered 4,000 state militiamen to Chicago to aid federal troops. The strike itself, combined with the presence of armed troops in the neighborhood, disrupted George Pullman’s vision for his model town.
As Pullman employees stopped work, the national ramifications on rail lines began drawing international media attention. The ARU’s call to boycott Pullman cars nationwide brought increased awareness to their cause and further increased tensions.
GL-07.02-100
The Pullman strike lasted less than three months, but the conflict shaped labor relations in the United States for decades. Not only did dozens lose their lives, but workers also questioned the value of their sacrifice as they watched the strikers go back to work with no raise in wages. Railroads lost millions in potential earnings, but won in the longer run as the American Railway Union collapsed, and Eugene Debs served six months in prison for conspiracy to halt the US Mail. The legal injunction against the strike affirmed the federal government’s power to protect interstate commerce, essentially empowering and encouraging judges to use court injunctions to stop strikes even when the strikers were doing nothing illegal.
Eugene. Debs went to prison for his role in the strike on July 23, 1894. On January 1, 1897, Debs formally announced he was a Socialist. He later became the most prominent spokesman for the new Socialist Party of America and ran for President of the United States five times.
THE STRIKE’S
OUTCOMES
In July 1894, President Grover Cleveland created the United States Strike Commission. Carroll D. Wright (United States Commissioner of Labor), John D. Kernan (a former Railroad Commissioner for New York), and Nicholas E. Worthington, (circuit judge of the Tenth Judicial District of Illinois) comprised this investigative body. The commission listened to testimony from many participants, including Eugene Debs and George Pullman, and published its findings.
The Pullman strike resulted in the damage and burning of dozens of railroad cars across the United States.This image shows the results of local labor violence outside of Pullman near Burnside Crossing and 104th Street in Chicago.
American workers risked their jobs by participating in the first Labor Day parade, held in New York City on September 5, 1882. Twenty-three states adopted the Labor Day holiday by 1894, signaling growing Labor unrest in response to Capitalism’s quick growth.
Amidst the tensions at the height of the Pullman strike and boycott, President Grover Cleveland signed a bill into law on June 28, 1894, finally declaring Labor Day a national holiday. Ten years later, a photographer captured this image during Chicago’s Labor Day parade.

BULLETIN
THE PULLMAN
STRIKE
p q r s w x y z ab cde f g h i j k l m no
An economic depression struck the United States in 1893. The Pullman Company responded by both reducing its workforce and cutting wages. Rents in the town of Pullman, however, remained the same even as workers’ take-home pay plummeted. In May 1894, local Pullman workers went on strike.
In solidarity, members of the American Railway Union (ARU) and their leader Eugene Debs voted in favor of a national boycott of Pullman railroad cars the following month. National transportation and commerce were crippled. In July, President Grover Cleveland ordered federal troops to put an end to the strike. How did the Pullman strike shape
American labor history? Are there other ways to resolve conflicts without the use of force?

to show how different groups felt about the strike as it occurred.
The 1894 Pullman strike had many different players—factory workers, labor leaders, government figures, and the President of the United States all played key roles.
The interaction between these different forces determined the final outcome of the strike.
Pullman strike participants were not the only ones with strong views on these events. Global newspapers also covered the strike with great interest. Many reports depicted strikers as foreigners, contrasting them sharply with the federal soldiers called in to suppress the strike. Some editors warned of mobs, anarchy, and defiance of the law. Famous western painter Frederic Remington referred to strikers to strikers as a “malodorous crowd of anarchistic foreign trash” in Harper’s
Weekly. Many soldiers formed similar opinions. One soldier told Remington of the strikers: “Say, do you know them things ain’t human?—before God I don’t think they are men.”

On to Washington, ten thousand black Americans! Let them swarm from every hamlet, village, and town … Let them come in automobiles, buses, trains, trucks, and on foot. Let them come though the winds blow and rains beat against them, when the date is set.”

I M A G E P A N E L S Many of the Pullman Company’s advertisements relied on selling the luxurious services provided by smiling Pullman porters. In reality, life as a porter was quite difficult. Many of these advertisements also stereotyped the porters. Indeed, many passengers simply referred to porters by the same name—George. Former porter Frank Rollins resisted, saying, “May I have your attention please. My name is Frank Rollins. If you can’t remember that, that’s OK. You can call me porter ... Just don’t call me ‘boy’ and don’t call me George.”

After the Civil War, formerly enslaved people found work on Pullman’s sleeper cars as maids and porters. Being a Pullman porter meant long hours and sometimes demeaning work. For decades, porters had little to no say during periods of labor unrest. They had to fight longer and harder to achieve the same representation as other Pullman workers.
However, being a porter was also one of the best jobs available to black men at the time.
They gained access to a much wider world of possibilities outside the South, helping to create and enlarge the black middle class.

This schematic drawing shows a view of the town’s Market Square Residences. Beman designed these spaces as an add-on to the original town of Pullman in order to attract visitors in Chicago for the 1893 World’s Fair. Each building contained three apartments, one on the first floor and two on the upper floor.
Black women worked for Pullman as laundresses, maids, and female attendants beginning in the late 1800s. For some of these women, laboring in railroad cars could be a better alternative to cooking or cleaning as a domestic in American households.

BROTHERHOOD
OF SLEEPING CAR PORTERS
Labor organizations did not welcome Pullman porters and other African American workers. A. Philip Randolph and Chicagoan Milton P. Webster led black organizers to create their own union, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters (BSCP), in 1925. Wives and female relatives of porters gave financial support to the Brotherhood and helped to convince black workers that unionizing could force social progress. The union leaders and members persisted until changes in labor law helped them force the Pullman Company to recognize the BSCP in 1935.
Two years later, the union signed its first collective bargaining agreement with the company. The BSCP was a source of inspiration and activism in African American communities and a catalyst for national change and Civil Rights through the 1960s.
The officers of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in the 1930s. From left to right, the officers are: L. O. Mason, Bennie Smith, Ashley Totten, T. T. Patterson, A. Philip Randolph, Milton P. Webster, C. L. Dellums, and E. J. Bradley.
A. PHILIP RANDOLPH was the co-founder of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and an activist in the civil rights movement. Randolph, members of the BSCP were at the forefront of the modern civil rights movement, from the 1955 Montgomery bus boycott through the push for the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act in the 1960s. In 1963, Randolph served as the head of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, where Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. made his famous “I Have a Dream” speech calling for America to “make real the promises of democracy.”
Women played an integral role in the BSCP’s development.
Most of the fundraising to help fired workers came from the Women’s Economic Council Auxiliary, formed in 1925. More than just fundraisers, these women worked as labor activists demanding citizenship and consumer and workers’ rights.

Porters were the public face of the Pullman product. Their reputation for impeccable service was essential to the luxurious experience of riding in a Pullman car.
George Pullman created a paid position that became an opportunity for the formerly enslaved men. His decision, however, to hire black men working mostly for tips and facing discrimination from many white customers lacked the dignity and rights that other workers had. What was it like to be a Pullman porter?

WHAT IS PULLMAN’S
LEGACY?
60"
This neighborhood is home to thousands of Chicagoans who have largely retained the unique look created by Solon Spencer Beman.
Contemporary labor leaders continue to discuss the lessons of the Pullman strike. George Pullman’s last name remains synonymous with luxury and comfort. The Pullman porters established greater opportunities for their children and grandchildren. What does
Pullman mean to you?
TTHE PULLMAN LEGACY
CONTINUES, EVEN THOUGH THE
COMPANY NO LONGER EXISTS.
I M A G E P A N E L S In 2015, Method and Ecover opened the doors to a brand new $30 million plant near Pullman National Monument. The opening of the new facility was significant, considering Pullman’s long legacy of manufacturing. The Method plant was the first new factory to be built on the South Side in nearly 30 years. Like the Pullman Company, Method collocated supplies within its planned manufacturing complex.
In 1981, the United Steelworkers Local 1834 union tried to keep the Pullman Company from shutting down its operations in Pullman, which would put several hundred people out of work. This image is a still from The Last Pullman Car, a documentary that focuses on the workers’ reactions as elected officials, the company, and the national union failed to help them keep their jobs.
On February 19, 2015, President Barack Obama signed a proclamation establishing Pullman National Monument. Former First Lady Michelle Obama is a descendant of a Pullman porter.
Pullman Hotels and Resorts is a brand of international hotels named after the Pullman Company. Though they are unaffiliated with the town of Pullman or the Pullman Company, this resort chain continues to market luxury to its guests. Advertising materials prompt guests to live the “Pullman Life.”
The Latino Union of Chicago collaborates with low-income immigrant and US-born workers to improve social and economic conditions. Their Immigrant & Worker Action Project empowers day laborers and household workers to organize for policy changes that improve their lives.
This city’s labor struggles are not just a thing of the past. In 2010, Chicago Federation of Labor (CFL) President Dennis Gannon worked to get Walmart to agree to a Community Benefits Agreement. Under this arrangement, Walmart would have agreed not just to a minimum wage, but also to hire local workers and to take steps to protect the environment. The CFL ultimately stopped supporting the effort due to pressure from city leadership.

The opening of the new facility was significant, considering Pullman’s long legacy of manufacturing. The Method plant was the first new factory to be built on the South Side in nearly 30 years. Like the Pullman Company, Method collocated supplies within its planned manufacturing complex.
Companies, including Facebook and Google, have continued to expand on Pullman’s urban planning idea of a company town.
Both A. Philip Randolph and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters played major roles in the struggle for racially equality. The BSCP helped shape a black middle class in the United States and fueled the Great Migration of African Americans from the rural South to cities in the North and Midwest. During the Civil Rights Movement, BSCP members were seasoned organizers and established national networks of communication among activist groups. A. Philip Randolph, seen here with Martin Luther King Jr. and President Dwight Eisenhower, remained a leader in the movement and helped organize the 1963 March on Washington.
On February 19, 2015, President Barack Obama signed a proclamation establishing Pullman National Monument. Former First Lady Michelle Obama is a descendant of a Pullman porter. Activists and community members, many of whom were also descendants, have worked for decades to see the architecture and history of the community preserved. These decisions have prevented new developments, including affordable housing complexes, from being built in the community.
Pullman Hotels and Resorts is a brand of international hotels named after the Pullman Company. Though they are unaffiliated with the town of Pullman or the Pullman Company, this resort chain continues to market luxury to its guests. Advertising materials prompt guests to live the “Pullman Life,” pulling from the name Pullman branded to be synonymous with luxury and ease.
Just six days after the Pullman Strike’s end, Congress and President Grover Cleveland passed legislation designating Labor Day a federal holiday in honor of the contributions of the labor movement. This city and nation’s labor struggles, however, continued. In 1937 Chicago Police violently broke up union picnic. A. Philip Randolph continued to advocate for workers’ rights, organizing a March on Washington in 1941 (seen here). Today, unions and employers continue to renegotiate their relationship.
The Latino Union of Chicago collaborates with low-income immigrant and US-born workers to improve social and economic conditions. Their Immigrant & Worker Action Project empowers day laborers and household workers to organize for policy changes that improve their lives.
Many immigrants to Pullman and Chicago today face the same challenges as those of previous decades—securing affordable housing, finding a job with livable wages, and combatting negative perceptions.

• Light streams into the exhibit space through the western and northern windows.
Consider taking steps to minimize outside light, while trying not to completely cover the grand window structures.
• Exhibits will have to work around and/or incorporate the posts that run down the center of the space.
• Consider which entryways can be closed off or opened up for access to the exhibit and retail areas.
• Define an area for the desk near the entryway, and leave room for the museum store and storage areas.
• The interior of the building is not considered “sacred.” We can attach to walls.
• The ceiling of the corridor space will drop down to accommodate additional floor space upstairs.
• Despite the additional floor, ceiling height will still be tall enough for projected imagery.
Our designs will utilize the dramatic height of the building’s interior spaces.
