    c) the rehiring of workers after they resigned from the union

    Explanation:

    The Pullman strike was a response to the depression of the 1893 which caused Pullman manufacturing company, a company that manufactured railroad cars, to slash already low worker's wages by 25%, causing an uproar among Pullman workers that led to the Pullman strike. The Pullman strike also drew in the ARU causing a strike against the Great Northern Railway System in 1894. The strike caused great obstruction to traffic and slowed business mightily causing a government injunction. The above is a comment in the issue from a Pullman worker, Theodore Rhodie in August 16, 1894
