Since the charge didn't stick I don't think you have any remedy against the police for what you claim is their initiation of the series of phone calls. As for slander, it would be hard to make a case that simply beacause you were arrested but not convicted of the crime that the mere allegation that you were a burglar was a) untrue and b) publicized and c) caused you harm (damages). Look at the section on "libel/slander" under "Personal Injury" topic at this website's home page to see what you have to show to win a slander suit.
