Kansas City Southern Securities Under Scrutiny In 1918 Outlook
Kansas City Southern Railway faces a mixed year with 1912 declines in gross and net earnings, a seriously underearned preferred dividend, and a looming Panama Canal-driven expansion.

The report on August cotton conditions shows a 74.8% reading, with forecasts implying a crop over 14 million bales, while last year's record stood at 16.2 million.
