BLOCKED THIRD-AVE. ELEVATED.

MYSTERIOUS PERSON WEDGED BETWEEN
THE ENGINE AND PLATFORM.
Traffic on the Third-ave. elevated railroad was
blocked for short time last night by man
who In some unknown manner became wedged
between engine and the platform of the
Franklin Square station. At 1O:45 o'clock the
engineer of uptown train started his engine
and then instantly heard agonzing scream.
He promptly shut off steam and applied the
brake. Turning he a man stuck fast be-
tween the tender of the engine and the platform.
The man seemed to be seriously injured and
the police of the Oak-st. station took charge of
him and called ambulance from the Hudson
Street Hospital. All the linguists in the pre-
cinct were called in but none of them could tell
word the said. They finally learned that
the man was Matthew Jacobsen, a Finlander,
who said he visiting this city. He said he
lives at Rockland Springs, Mich, and that he is
miner, thirtythree years old. How he got on
the platform he could not tell.
DR.. Smith, the ambulance surgeon, said the
man was injured internally, and he was taken TO
the hospital. He had not been drinking.

ARBUCKLEs CUT FIVE POINTS.
MR.. HAvEMEYER SAYS NO MORE PER
CENT DIvIDENDs-sUGAR STOCK DROPS.

There were important developments yester
day ina the sugar war. which would seem to
show that that long and costly contest is still
far from settlement Although the raw sugar
market is strong and advancing, Arbuckle
Brothers yesterday announced reduction of
sugar bringing the net price for the granulated
to 495 cents a pound President Havemeyer of
the American Sugar Refining Company, In an
interview later in the day. said of the Arbuckles
move:
A competitor this morning reduced the price of
refined sugar advancing raw market. This
is unparalleled in the history Of the trade; this
further diminishes the margin between raw and
refined, in which to there was no profit Such
a course only be explained because of the most
abject necessities. which is not to be thought or
or the determination TO make the business dlsas-
trous to all engaged in 1t. The American company
will not meet the prices while the raw market re-
mains as II is.
In response to a question about the dividend
on Sugar common Mr. Havemeyer said, IN sub
stance:
The condition OF the business since January l, to
say nothing of this mornings development, has not
been such to warrant any further DIVIDEND AT
the rate OF per cent and II existing conoltlons
continue. the rate will be much further reduced II
my recommendations prevail
The publication of Mr. Havemeyer's views had
naturally a depressing effect the stock, and
Sugar, which had sold in the course of the day
as high as 1l0A, speedily declined to 1O3 closing
