The American Railway Union strike against the Pullman Palace Car Company in 1894 pitted America's largest industrial union against 24 railroads, and was broken up by federal troops and suppressed in the courts. Papke (law, Indiana U. School of Law-Indianapolis) re-examines events and personalities surrounding the strike, related proceedings in the Chicago trial courts, and the 1895 Supreme Court decision, In re Debs , which set important standards for labor injunctions.
