Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: In May of 1886 a series of rallies were held to protest for the eight-hour workday.
As the police moved forward to disperse the crowd, a unknown person threw a bomb which detonated in front of the police. Gunshots were exchanged between police and demonstrators. Officer Mathias J. Degan was killed instantly. Six other police later died of their injuries, four civilians were killed and around 60 were injured. In the aftermath of the riot eight anarchists would be charged and convicted of conspiracy, although none had thrown the bomb. One was sentenced to 15 years, the remaining seven were sentenced to death. One of the anarchists on death row committed suicide in jail. Four were hanged on November 11, 1887 and two had their death sentences commuted to life in prison. When Illinois Governor John Altgeld took office he pardoned the remaining men. Located in Forest Park Cemetery, Lot 789, Section N, Forest Park, IL. |
