An attempt has been made to attribute the delayed low-energy events in the neutrino-burst data from SN 1987A obtained by the Kamiokande-II and the Irvine-Michigan-Brookhaven Collaborations to a few energy-dependent effects on the propagation of the neutrinos. While attribution of the events to the neutrino-mass effect provides no attractive information on the mass, analysis of the data with a novel energy dependence of the velocity of massless particles due to an unknown elementary length l0 in space yields an interesting result: the observed time-energy profiles of the burst are roughly explained when one assumes l0~1×10-18 cm and the related increases of ~1/1013 and ~1/1012 in velocities of massless particles of energies 10 and 30 MeV, respectively. This assumption appears not to be rejected by any existing experimental data. Precision velocity measurements at higher energies are desirable for checking this possibility.
