SEC. 38. If it shall appear to the justice that there is reasonable cause to believe that the complaint is true, he shall, if such accused person would have been bailable in case the offence had been committed in this District, require him to recognise, with sufficient sureties, in a sufficient sum, to appear before the criminal court of this District at a future day, allowing a reasonable time to obtain the warrant of the executive, and to abide the order of said criminal court; and if such person shall not so recognise, he shall be committed to jail, and be there detained until such day. The recognizance, if any, shall be returned to said court without delay; and if the person so recognising shall fail to appear according to the condition of the recognizance, the like proceedings shall be had as in the case of other recognizances entered into before a justice; but if such person would not have been bailable in case the offence had been committed in this District, he shall be committed to jail, and there detained until the day so appointed for his appearance before said court. SEC. 39. The justice by whom such person may be so recognised or committed shall immediately inform the judge of the criminal court of the fact, who shall thereupon communicate the same to the executive of the State where the crime is charged to have been committed. SEC. 40. If the person so recognised or committed shall appear before said court upon the day ordered, he shall be discharged, unless he shall be demanded by some person authorized by the warrant of the executive to receive him, or unless said court shall see cause to commit him, or to require him to recognise anew for his appearance at some other day; and if, when ordered, he shall not so recognise, he shall be committed and detained as before. But whether the person so charged shall be recognised, committed, or discharged, any person authorized by the warrant of the executive may, at all times, take him into custody, and the same shall be a discharge of the recognizance, if and shall not be deemed an escape. any, SEC. 41. No person under prosecution for any offence alleged to have been committed within this District shall be delivered up to the executive authority of the State, until such prosecution shall be determined, and the person prosecuted shall be punished, if condemned; nor shall any person under recognizance to appear as a witness in any such prosecution be so delivered up until said prosecution shall be determined. SEC. 42. The President of the United States may offer a reward for apprehending and securing any person convicted of an offence, or charged therewith, who shall have escaped from prison, or for apprehending and securing any person charged with an offence, who, there is reason to fear, cannot be arrested in the common course of proceeding. But no such reward shall be paid to any marshal or other officer who may arrest such person by virtue of any process in his hands to be executed. 6. Court to charge grand jury. 8.
