Changed uin8 to uint8 in response to issue #9266
closes #9266 

Thanks, this needs:
1. a test case which breaks before this change (you can use the example from #9266; add it to `pandas/io/tests/test_parsers.py`)
2. an addition the "bug fixes" section of `docs/sources/whatsnew/0.16.0.txt` (refer to the original issue)
 This is my first PR attempt and I don't understand this error message.  Did I do something wrong in the test function I added?
 @CoolRanch29 I rebase and push your branch up here. pls review and update this PR when you can
https://github.com/jreback/pandas/tree/CoolRanch29-master

I am not sure what you are trying to compare against here (e.g. what should the expected frame look like?)
 Okay, I added an expected frame to test again.  The problem before is that pd.read_fwf wasn't working at all - an exception was thrown when trying to read the test case.  I'm still concerned that in the resulting frame, the column 'dst' is of type 'object' when using read_fwf and of type 'float64' when created by DataFrame().
 whats new is now available for 0.16.1 https://github.com/pydata/pandas/commit/5ebf521eac528f5a4b772e4677f70b689b8b1826
 can you rebase this?
 I'm pretty sure I just rebased.  I'm sorry if this is causing a headache for you, I'm sure I'm doing some things stupidly.  I've gotten a lot of benefit out of using pandas and so I'm trying to contribute but this is my first time contributing so I'm having to learn a lot about both the pandas code and github.  
 couple of style things. pls add a release note in v0.16.1 as well.
 We'd like to merge this. Pls address the comments from above. (and needs a rebase). see [here](http://pandas-docs.github.io/pandas-docs-travis/contributing.html) for help on this.
 @CoolRanch29 can you update
 @CoolRanch29 want to update?
 Okay, I believe I just rebased.
