The night before this event, a proposed leaflet commanding one group to "appear in full force" and with "arms" was rejected. During that same night, a plan to retaliate with simultaneous bombing was discussed. That night was called the "Monday Night Conspiracy." Most of the casualties on one side were due to friendly-fire in the dark and those people died after Samuel Fielden finished a speech at 10:30 PM. Louis Lingg was one person convicted for causing this event and he survived six hours after a smuggled cigar-shaped dynamite cap blew his face off.  Judge Joseph Gary sentenced Albert Parson, George Engel, and August Spies to hangings for their parts in this event, which also saw the death of Mathias Degan. Pardons for three others were signed by Illinois Governor John Altgeld for, for 10 points, what event where a bomb was hurled at policemen in an important commercial square in Chicago?
