According to Professor Wolfe, as the Tribune quotes him in an inter view, his change of faith was due to a trip to Mexico which satisfied him, he said, that the Mormon church had receded from the Woodruff manifesto and reinstated polygamous marriages. He found many young women who had recently entered into the plural mar riage relation with leading elders of the Mormon church. Professor Wolfe is quoted as saying: "The Mormon settlements in Mexi co are closely in touen with those ol Arizoua and in each case polygamy i* practiced as freely today as It ever has been.’’ Professor Wolfe Is quoted as eayio* that he sought an explanation of these ooodltions of Apostle John Henry Smith, asking how these polygamous marriages could be reconciled with the Woodruff manifesto, and he It report ed at quoting Apostle Smith at fol low*: "Why, Brother Wolfe, do you not understand that the manifesto wa* only a trick devised to beat the devil at Ms own game?” Professor Wolfe it tfce son Presbyterian clergyman.
