A national emergency was averted in 1902 when Roosevelt found a compromise to the Anthracite coal strike that threatened the heating supplies of most homes. Roosevelt forced an end to the strike when he threatened to use the United States Army to mine the coal and seize the mines.

Answer: The correct answer is : Teddy Roosevelt helped put an end to the strike through threats, made them believe that he would seize the mines and operate them with federal troops.

Explanation: The miners called a strike because the wages were too low, they did not have enough security measures to protect their lives and extended working hours.
