In a straight line, it's about 9 miles (14.5 km).
Driving it can take anywhere from 25 to 40 minutes, depending on traffic. Taking a taxi between the two will run about $30 with tip, maybe less if you don't hit any traffic at all.
Taking the CTA Orange Line takes about 26 minutes on the train and then it's about a 6-7 minute walk from the Quincy stop in the Loop to Union Station, for a total trip time of just over 30 minutes. As of September, 2009, CTA base fare for that trip is $2.25.

I was looking for this myself. I found two buses, but no trains: Bus direct to Midway: Bus to Chicago's Union Station, and then take the Orange El train to Midway (longer): See the related links.
CTA's Orange Line runs from Midway to Quincy/Wells downtown, four blocks east of Union Station. Take the CTA Orange Line that begins at Midway Airport. Get off at the Quincy/Adams stop (about a 30 minute ride). Walk south one block to Jackson Boulevard and take a right (west). Go about four blocks (including a bridge over the Chicago River) and Union Station will be on your right.
