I am not sure but I think it might be 3) 1902 Anthracite Coal Strike which was during when Theodore Roosevelt was president. Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

(2) 1894 Pullman Strike

Step-by-step explanation:

Pullman Strike, (May 11, 1894–c. July 20, 1894), in U.S. history, widespread railroad strike and boycott that severely disrupted rail traffic in the Midwest of the United States in June–July 1894. The federal government's response to the unrest marked the first time that an injunction was used to break a strike.
