Question Rancher In Woman VDeatli Wealthy Washington Man Avers' He Accidentally Shot Housekeeper BREMERTON. Sept. 2Q-JP)-Charles Fred Miller, 54, reputed ly wealthy Seabeck rancher, sat in the county jail at Port Or chard while authorities sought evidence tonight to tear down his statement he shot and killed his housekeeper, Mrs. Jeanerte Dun bar, by accident last August 20. No death charge had been filed against him late today. Prosecutor Ralph E. Purves, who had Miller arrested and tak en to Seattle for questioning Sat urday, was reported out of town, and Sheriff Rush Blankenship de clined to comment. His office last month tentatively accepted; a the ory Mrs. Dunbar committed sui cide until a political feud was re vived and Mayor Jesse Knabb, th police and Purves' investigators reopened the investigation and caused an inquest verdict that Mrs. Dunbar was slain. Miller, who came to this sec tion, about 30 years ago from Huntington. W. Va.. stated he shot Mrs. Dunbar when she. in toxicated, pointed a .32-20 cali ber rifle at him., He said the rifle was discharged' as they wrestled for It during a quarrel. Police Capt. Leonard I. Cor nell, who was one of the original investigators on the scene, said Miller's account of the shooting does not Jibe with physical evi dence. He said a postmortem ex amination disclosed little alcohol in Mrs. Dunbar's stomach; that medical evidence indicated she did not die at the time that Mil ler indicated", and that tests with the rifle today showed It caused powder burns at any distance less than three feet but that Mrs. Dunbar's body was not powder marked.
