With his new identity as Swami Bhumananda, on 22 July 1908, Bhavabhushan  joined a group of revolutionaries who, disguised as fierce monks, created a panic by attacking the armed police to protest against Tilak's trial : the Leader was accused of  fomenting hatred and contempt, exciting disloyalty to HM's Government.

"Following the arrest of the Manicktola conspirators and the legal onslaught on the [[Calcutta]] [[Anushilan Samiti]] (1908–1909), (...) [Jatin Mukherjee’s] appearance on the scene just at this juncture was a god-send to the revolutionary workers. Very soon he plunged himself deeply into politics, secretly undertaking missionary tours through the districts of [[Howrah]], [[Nadia District|Nadia]], [[Khulna]], [[Jessore District|Jessore]], Rajsahi and 24 Parganas and setting up secret societies in each district under the command of a local leader."<ref>''Two Great'', p167</ref>

Two days after the searches in Kolkata, on 4 May 1908, Bhavabhushan arrived suddenly at Deoghar dressed in ochre and stayed about 15 days with Sarada Charan, "an attorney of the [[Calcutta High Court]], a most suspicious gentleman who was undoubtedly in league with the revolutionaries." Later Bhababhushan  gave out that the revolutionary [[Shyamji Krishna Varma]] had asked him to join the group in Paris. He was holding a valid passport when the police arrested him in [[Mumbai]]. Bhababhushan had been in jail during the trial of the main case, 1908–1909, and was convicted in a supplementary case connected with the Howrah case  in June 1910.<ref>Sealy's Report in ''Terrorism'', Vol. V, p20</ref>
