In 1870 he returned to France, but was forced to go back to the United Kingdom at the time of the Paris community.
In London he had met Parliamentarian Martin Nadaud when the secretary worked in the Guéret prefecture.

In March 1902, an understanding of Tripolis and Morocco was found, which contributed to the fact that the Dreilbund was not extended.
