This Week In Illinois History: The Haymarket Riot (May 4, 1886) An 1886 engraving of the Haymarket Riot from Harper’s Weekly depicting the moment the bomb exploded. The story of the Haymarket Riot of 1886 actually begins 20 years earlier. After the Civil War, Chicago’s labor unions had been pushing for an eight-hour workday instead of the usual 12 to 14. In response, Illinois passed an eight-hour law, but it had loopholes that allowed employers to ignore it. So on Saturday, May 1, 1867, unions called for a city-wide strike to protest the flawed law. Six thousand workers flooded into the streets, and the protest spread from there. The strike crippled the city’s economy for almost a week, but the movement eventually fell apart, and the ineffectual law went unchanged.
