In Homestead, Pennsylvania, a violent dispute between company and worker broke out. Andrew Carnegie, owner of Carnegie steel had aided in the worker pay cuts. This left 3,800 workers locked out of their jobs. All of the worker went on strike halting production for Carnegie steel, resulting in the foreman to hire 300 Pinkerton agents to disrupt the strike. When the Pinkertons arrived a gun fight ensued, resulting in the death of 12 people. -
After the Pinkertons surrendered to the workers, foreman Frick had the governor of Pennsylvania send 8,500 national guard soldiers to secure the steel mill and put the town under martial law.
