There were bursts of activity and inactivity regarding post-manifesto plural marriages. Things were definitely on the way out with the Smoot hearings and the second manifesto, but some were still done as late as at least 1912 (if memory serves). Of course, Elders Taylor and Cowley were removed from the Quorum of the Twelve over this (in 1905 and 1911, respectively).

Van Wagoner's book has a chapter on post-Manifesto polygamy too.
