The Matter Brought to the Attention of the Authorities in Washington. WASHINGTON. Feb. 8.»—Posaibly it was with an apprehension of what is Just coming to pass on the Texas bor- der that Senor de in Barre, the Mexi~ can ambassador. some time ago, pro- posed to Secretary Knox the negotia- tion of n treaty to regulate the fight of aeroplanes between the United States and Mexico. Secretary Knox Was willing to entertain the proposi- lion and as a result a treaty has been drafted which has received the approv. at of the Mexican government andvls now before the State Department for its action. The ostensible purpose of the next Mexican novernment was to prevent smuggling. which could be carried on in the case of small and exceedinl y 'vaiuuble commodities, such as lows. 1 es.
