TIE RECIPROCITY CLUE.

There was somewhat Of q contrast at the
headquarters of the Reciprocity Club in the
building at the corner of 18th street and the
avenue. There was a sort Of double bill being
played there. with the republicans in the third
story and the Farmers Alliance snugly estab-
hshed floor lower. The upper works held the
wires and the means of general publication Of
news, however, having a small sheet stretched
across the telegraph poles on the east side of
The building. Therefore the friends of the
farmer In the second story satisfied themselves
with reading the republican returns backward
The president of the alliance Col Polk, was
there, and he improvised a mirror that auto
matically turned the facts and figures right
side up, but there was nothing at hand to grind
out alliance news and the rooms were very
quiet
Upstairs the republicans we're having quiet
tine with fortune smiling on them about
evenly, for the only states from which the news
was at all perfect were New York and Ohio and
there seemed to be very much of a stand-off
there Several speeches were made and there
Was some sign of excitement now and then, but
on the whole the party had a very coy time,
and there was little or no disturbance
But outside Of the building there was a
queer lack Of interest shown in the little bul-
letin- Ii was hardly large enough for the glass
slides that were used, and most of the messages
had TO be imagined. So the crowd KEEP; dwind-
hing until, at II o'clock, there were but dozen
shiyering men and the regulation half-dozeu
cabs and night-liners below tue circle of re.
turn-speckled light.
