 $xml = new SimpleXMLElement('http://www.beeldengeluidwiki.nl/api.php?action=query&list=categorymembers&cmtitle=Category:Cabaretier&cmlimit=400', null, true);
$data = $xml->xpath("/api/query/categorymembers/cm");

    They are attributes 

    $xml = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
echo "<pre>";
foreach($xml->query->categorymembers->children() as $cm)
{
    list($pageid, $ns, $title) = $cm->attributes();
    echo $pageid , " " , $ns  , " " , $title , PHP_EOL ;
}

    Output
