Young Mormon Converts willing to be
Ono Wife Among Many.
NEW York. Oct. 2.-The authorities at
the barge Office this morning used an
immense amount of moral suasion on thirty
two young Mormons that arrived yesterday
on the steamer Wyoming, to induce them
to forego their intention of becoming
proselytea to the Mormon faith. The girls
were separated from the other passengers
as they landed and placed in a room by
themselves. Three female missionaries
from the Emigrant Girls Home went
among them and tried to convince them of
the folly of the course they proposed to
follow. One of the girls, Karen Sylvester
sen by name, who acted as spokeswoman
for the party, frankly acknowledged that
they were all willing to be one of seven or
eight wives and were fully aware OF the
principles of Mormonism. The girls are all
young and some of them remarkably pretty.
The attempt of the missionaries to influence
them proved an utter failure. The entire
party will proceed on their journey to :
The party comprises, all told, 2O2
souls. of whom thirty-two are children.
Among the lot is q married Englishwoman,
who left her husband in England to take
up the Mormon faith.
