It seems to be a data set for use with Introductory Time Series with R by P S 
Cowpertwait and A V Metcalfe. It is not just the file that is missing, the 
whole folder is missing:

The requested URL /~pscoperwait/ was not found on this server.

The Springer website for the book indicates the data sets are located at

http://staff.elena.aut.ac.nz/Paul-Cowpertwait/ts/

but there is no server at staff.elena.aut.ac.nz. A web search turns up this 
link:

http://www.maths.adelaide.edu.au/andrew.metcalfe/

But the link to cbe.dat and the other data sets are dead.

Hello,

What do you mean by "gives me something"?

xx <- read.csv("http://massey.ac.nz/~pscoperwait/ts/cbe.dat";)
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
   cannot open URL 'http://massey.ac.nz/~pscoperwait/ts/cbe.dat': HTTP 
status was '404 Not Found'
