Rail strike boycott hits major railroads across nation
President Debs and the American Railway Union announce a boycott of lines in the General Managers' Association. Commissions will mobilize workers to strike at once on roads including Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific and Illinois Central, with a broader stoppage planned if sufficient support is organized. The action targets lines hauling Pullman cars and aims to cripple the association’s effort to suppress the union.
