Answer:
They refused to negotiate with the employees.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Lowell Mill was a mill that hired mostly young girls and provided them boardinghouses that were close to the mill. The problem was that to profit more after production dropped, the Lowell reduced wages which led to The Lowell Mill Girls Strike. The strike did not result in anything because the mill owners refused to negotiate with the employees, most of the girls had to return to work because they needed the money, others left and others were hired.
