The Ludlow Massacre ended the day it started -- April 20, 1914, a Monday. But the backlash continued until May 1. The violence didn't end until the National Guard had been routed and replaced by the U.S. Army. At that point, the striking coal miners and their supporters ended their campaign of retribution.
