Abolitionists were fighting for abolition which is the act to end slavery. Reformers are/were fighting for things like woman's rights, helping the insane, etc. In a way reformers and abolitionists are both fighting for human rights, but they still are "different''.

What was the difference between early reformers and later reformers like Martin Luther?

Early reformers actually reformed the Church, Martin Luther did not reform the Church, he apostatized and took others into heresy with him. Early reformers started by reforming their own lives, great saints like St. Catherine of Siena, who almost single handedly ended the Western Schism were extremely humble before God, practiced the virtues and were graced by God. Martin Luther was anything but a great saint, by his own words, he sinned and sinned "greatly" to show that he was already saved.
