The fourth statement is true.
Because Pullman refused to meet workers’ demands, the strike shut down large parts of the rail system and cost the company far more in lost business and damages than it would likely have cost to make concessions. The strike was ultimately broken by federal intervention, and it weakened rather than strengthened unions in the short term.
