I believe...would have to go back to my notes...but Eagle doesn't support a slot hole, at least from a symbol point of view.  I had the same issue, some relays that needed a slot, ended up just doing a larger size hole instead.

the milling layer (which I use to define the outer shape to the board house). 
And of course the router bit diameter would have to be smaller than the width 
of the slot.

But internal slots added considerably to the cost of each board. So for 
something similar I've used a few holes very close to each other, and 
surrounded by a rectangular pad (that covers all the holes). When I got the 
board, I punched it though (the PCB "filler" between the adjacent holes) with 
a knife.
