The train was met at the bridge
just this side of Jacksonville by a
large crowd of railroad boys
who refused to permit It to proceed
further and persuaded the engine
er to return. The train was hack.

over night in the yards.

When the Pullman company
reduced the wages of its employees
thirty-three and one-third per cent.
1t did not reduce the rents of the
thousands of houses in which its
men lived nor did 1t reduce the
rent it received for the use of the
cars. The result was that the men
after paying their rents, gas and
water bills, had nothing left to buy
groceries and provisions for their
families. Pullman reduced his
workmen to slavery and starvation
and then when the strikers kicked,
refused to arbitrate the differences.
George M. Pullman is the sole
cause of the trouble of this strike
in our country today.
