More than $l5O worth of Mrs. Jackson's goods were recovered, but Miss McLaws first claimed that the landlady had given them to her, and then that she had purchased them from Mrs. Jackson. Mrs. Jackson is satis fied. Forgery Also Charged. The detectives had searched for Miss McLaws for some time. Chief Lanford says that reports have come in from va rious homes in the city, some of them in the Peachtree district, that things had been missing when Miss McLaws de parted, and he is investigating the charges. A local bank has also notified the de tectives that they wish to press charges against Miss McLaws for forged checks she is alleged to have passed. She stoutly maintains her innocence.
