He went abroad illegally several times, where he came into contact with Polish emigrants and attended lectures on philosophy and social sciences as a freelance listener at German universities.

In 1892 he was arrested in Warsaw while hanging up socialist proclamations in the Botanical Garden . After two years of pre-trial detention in the Warsaw Citadel , he was sentenced to three years in Saint Petersburg and six years' exile in Verkhoyansk . During this exile he carried out meteorological studies which earned him recognition in scientific circles.

The Russian Revolution of 1905 enabled him to return to Vilnius and finally to Warsaw , where he settled permanently.
