MILLER ELS STORY TO JURY IN MURDER 111 Washington, May (UP)-Mrs. Robert I. Miller, whose husband is charged with murdering the man she "went with," denied on cross-examination today that she once told an acquaintance that Miller had threatened to kill both her and Dr. John E. Lind.

She also testified under re-direct examination that she provided Lind with money because "he was in trouble with another woman." The 67-year-old Miller is being tried on first degree murder charges because he shot and killed Lind, a noted psychiatrist, in his wife's presence last February. Mrs. Miller and Lind were in Lind's car on a downtown street. She testified yesterday that Lind had obtained sums totaling $5,000 from her by threatening to expose their relationship. She also said that the doctor had a gun in his automobile on the day of the shooting and threatened to shoot when he approached the parked, car and told her to let out.

The defense. contends that Miller, a prominent criminal attorney, killed Lind in self-defense while temporarily insane. Today, Prosecutor Daniel Maher questioned Mrs. Miller about in alleged conversation with Dr. Watson Eldridge, a colleague of Lind's at St.

Elizabeth's mental lospital. "No, I Didn't" "Did you tell Dr. Eldridge that you had received inheritances of $15,000 $3,000 and ask him, For God's sake, don't say anything about this to and tell Jim that Miller had threatened kill both Lind and you?" Maher asked. "That money question," she replied, "was just a dream. No, 1 didn't say any of that." Mrs.

Miller refused unless her counsel should later advise it-- to ubmit to fingerprinting in an ef- ort to identify a gun found in an envelope in Lind's car after the killing. A single fingerprint, the only one that has figured in the was found on the envelope. "Did you ever touch that gun?" Maher asked Mn. Miller. "No," she said, "I was afraid that gun." Only on Counsel's Advice Judge Ben Moore excused the ui-y while he asked the witness: "Are you willing to have your ngerprints taken for comparison with the print found on the envelope which contained that gun?" "I don't care," Mrs.

Miller said, "but I would do it only on advice of my counsel." Again on cross-examination, Mrs. Miller testified that there was only one gun in the Miller household in the 16 years she has been married to Miller. Thus far three guns have been mentioned in the case-- the one that did the killing, taken from Miller by police- the one found in the car, and another found oy police in Lind's home Asked whether she had keys to! Lmds house, Mrs. Miller a i Ito, indeed, 1 never did." Mrs. Miller also testified that she spent from $20 to $25 a week of Millers money buying groceries lor Lmd.
