How was the homestead strike ended
🔄 Click to see definition
Definition1/9
The strike ended with Frick (plant GM) hiring replacement workers for the mill under the protection of the Pennsylvania State Militia. Once he successfully got the plant running again, he simply waited out the strikers, until they began ignoring the strike and returning to work under Frick's conditions (the conditions that he had originally proposed, which had led to the strike). Within two months, nearly all of the striking workers that management wanted back had returned to work, the rest being permanently replaced.
