    If from the examination before the judge it appears that 
 the person held is the person charged with having committed the

 that the accused has fled from justice, the judge must, by a 
 warrant reciting the accusation, commit the accused to the 
 county jail for a time, not exceeding 30 days and specified in 
 the warrant, as will enable the arrest of the accused to be made 
 under a warrant of the governor on a requisition of the 
 executive authority of the state having jurisdiction of the 
 offense, unless the accused gives bail as provided in section 
 629.16, or until the accused is legally discharged.
