When the punishment of the crime shall be the confinement of the criminal in the penitentiary, the expenses shall be paid out of the state treasury, on the certificate of the Governor and warrant of the State Comptroller; and in all other cases they shall be paid out of the county treasury in the county wherein the crime is alleged to have been committed. The expenses shall be the fees paid to the officers of the asylum state, and all necessary travel in returning such fugitives.

Before such accounts shall be certified by the Governor, or paid by the county, they shall be verified by affidavit, and certified to by the state's attorney of the county wherein the crime is alleged to have been committed, and submitted therewith shall be the agent's authority or a certified copy of the waiver of extradition.
