IMPORTED BEEF FOR GERMANY
Argentine Expectation Badly Needed
in the Fatherland.

Berlin. Sept. lo.-In consequence OF the
general clamor against the unprecedent-
eddy high price OF meat the government is
said to be considering the question OF IA
cilitating the importation OF Argentine
chilled meat. This measure Ia advocated
In countless petitions and remonstrances
which are being addressed to the govern
ment by municipalities and political or
ganlzations.
The importation OF Argentine frozen
beef Is now theoretically permitted. but
1t is hampered by vexatious regulations
which render the importation practically
prohibltive and the government hitherto
has insisted that an alteration OF the i'm
port rules was impossible
The popular feeling to which the gov
eminent is bending has taken possession
OF all classes and parties with the excep-
ton, OF course, OF the Agrarians.

London, Sept 10.-The Italian fleet has

TWO AVIAT0RS KILLED
British Army Officers Fall Five
Hundred Feet.
by Cable to The Tribune. J

London, Sept. 1O-Two more mem
bers Of the army flying corps were
killed to-day during an early morning
trip. They were Lieutenant e. Hotch-
kiss and Lieutenant c. a. Bettington,
both Of whom had just received their
flying certificates.
AS In the case of Captain Hamilton
and Lieutenant Stewart, who lost their
lives on Friday last, the accident seems
to have been due to the structural
weakness OF the machine.
Witnesses of the accident say they
saw a portion OF the left wing break
away while the pilot was in the midst
Of a volplane. The machine then
turned turtle and both planes collapsed.
Apparently the engine too, went
wrong just before the accident.
The machine in which the officers
were manquvring had passed over OK
ford and had reached point just out
side Wolvercote when the accident oc-
Cured. The biplane fell from height
Of five hundred feet like a stone.
One account Of the accident says
that an explosion occurred while the
machine was in the air. This would
account for the fact that the body Of
one Of the officers was found In the
river. while the other was picked up
about n hundred yards away In field.
Both OF the airmen had been Instantly
killed.
These two deaths bring the number
Of British army aviatCrs killed while
flying to six The death roll comprises
nineteen other English aviators and
two passengers.
The accident which cost the lives OF
Lieutenants Hotchkiss and Bettington
brings TO 179 the number of aviation IA
talities since the death OF Lieutenant
selfrldge, in September. 1908.

ANXIETY AS TO CANANEA
American Soldiers Watch Move
ments of General Salazar,
suspecting Him of Horse
Stealing Intentions,
From The Tribune Bureau. J

Washington, Sept. 10.-Disqmeung
reports from the Mexican border con-
tinue &c reach the War Department
but It is believed that the situation
has been relieved by the concentration
Of the federal forces in the vicinity OF
Cananea and Nacozari, although there
remains grave danger to unprotected
Americans in those districts.
With q view Of expediting relief and
protection for American interests in
Eastern Sonora, authority was to-day
granted by President Taft, through the
War Department. for 200 Mexican
federal troops to pass through Amerl-
can territory. The Mexican troops will
be entrained at FL Paso, Tex. and be
transported TO Nogales, Ariz. Their
arms and ammunition will be carefully
sealed in express cars. so they will 30
through American territory unarmed.
In addition they will be guarded by q
detachment Of United States regulars.
The date for the movement has not
been set.
One report to-day that caused much
concern was 10 the effect that the
rebels are concentrating in large num-
bers in the Ajos Mountains, in the
vicinity of Cananea, and were evident
~ preparing for a long forced march.
No hint has reached the War Depart
ment as to the objective point Of the
expected expedition.
The rebels are also concentrating
along the border, scouts reporting that
posite Quitman, Tex, and that FIVE
hundred more are encamped ten miles
TO the south Of that point.
American soldiers doing patrol duty
are closely watching the movements
Of General Salazar as a result Of his
threat to make another raid on Ameri-
can ranches along the border. One
theory is that the rebels are planning
concentrated attack TO steal horses
for use on the supposed expedition 10
the interior of the republic, and for
that reason the American guards are
on the alert all the time
Details of the defeat Of the rebels at
Ojinaga yesterday afternoon were con-
tanned In a dispatch to the War De-
partment from General Steever, who
had the information by Captain Adams,
at Presidio, Tex. The rebels, number
ing nearly three hundred men, were
repulsed by the garrison. The federals
lost only four men and five horses.

General Wood expressed surprise at

No Protests Raised.

The open door Is a fine thing to talk
about and all nations adhere to II on every
possible occasion-too often, II seems
as they do TO the principle OF the terri
toral integrity OF China, etcetera. but the
fact remains that these cherished Ameri-
can policies are now being violated, and
no one is saying word.
II is well known in every foreign chan
celery that at the Paris conference the
japanese banking representative, who was

with definite instructions from his gov
eminent, demanded recognition Of Japan's
special interests In Inner Mongolia. Her

churia. Mongolia and Western China were
more or less old, and have been tacitly
admitted by the powers. although that
concerning Inner Mongolia was new and
susceptible OF being asked about, but as
far as we know here no nation has spoken
up.
The situation seems TO be drifting back,
at least as far as Russia and Japan are
concerned, TO the delectable but discarded
and dangerous scheme Of spheres OF infiu-
ence. Aside from a selfish. commercial
interest over loss Of opportunity America
has very distinct interest In the welfare
OF China.
For years the American government and
the American people have been telling the
Chinese to put their house In order. to
clean out the grafters and the corrupt
officeholders, TO abolish the smoking OF
opium, to adopt a programme OF reform
throughout the entire nation. Returned
students have been taught in America new
theories OF government. and, finally the
nation was brought to the point of &C.
cepting Western advice and putting the
house in order.
II was done with a vengeance, done en-
tirely too vigorously. Yet 1t was done,
