Captain George Streeter's land scam occurred in this city, and under Know-Nothing mayor Levi Boone, it was the site of the Lager Beer Riots. This city, whose first black mayor was Harold Washington, contains the former outpost of Fort Dearborn. One venture here, co-founded by Ellen Gates Starr, was Jane Addams' Hull House, and its namesake "Seven" violently protested the 1968 Democratic Convention. Home to the Daley political family, infamous meat-packing stockyards, and Al Capone, for 10 points, name this city where Mrs. O'Leary's cow allegedly started an 1871 fire, the largest in Illinois.
