““Rule 250. Examination of defendant’s mental condition prior to or during trial; proceeding with trial or commitment of defendant to institution * * * * * * “B. If the court, after the hearing, decides that the defendant is able to understand the proceedings and to assist in his defense it shall proceed with the trial. If it decides that the defendant through insanity, or mental deficiency is not able to understand the proceedings or to assist in his defense, it shall have the defendant committed to th.e .institution authorized to receive him, - and- the commitment of the defendant shall exonerate his bail. If thereafter the authorized officer of such institution is of the opinion that the defendant is able to understand the proceedings and to assist in his defense, he shall report such fact to the court which conducted the hearing. If the officer so reports, the court shall proceed with the trial, and may again admit the defendant to bail, if he is bailable.” [Emphasis supplied.]”
