## load_dataset for LOCAL CSV files report CONNECTION ERROR
- **Description:** 
A local demo csv file:
```
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from datasets import load_dataset
import torch
import transformers

df = pd.DataFrame(np.arange(1200).reshape(300,4))
df.to_csv('test.csv', header=False, index=False)

print('datasets version: ', datasets.__version__)
print('pytorch version: ', torch.__version__)
print('transformers version: ', transformers.__version__)

# output:
datasets version:  1.1.2
pytorch version:  1.5.0
transformers version:  3.2.0
```

when I load data through `dataset`:
```
dataset = load_dataset('csv', data_files='./test.csv', delimiter=',', autogenerate_column_names=False)

Error infos:

Comments: Hi !
The url works on my side.

Is the url working in your navigator ?
Are you connected to internet ? Does your network block access to `raw.githubusercontent.com` ?

I tried another server, it's working now. Thanks a lot.

And I'm curious about why download things from "github" when I load dataset from local files ?  Dose datasets work if my network crashed?

It seems my network frequently crashed so most time it cannot work.

I download the scripts `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huggingface/datasets/1.1.2/datasets/csv/csv.py` and move it to the package dir `*/datasets/` solved the problem. Could you please put the file `datasets/datasets/csv/csv.py` to `datasets/src/datasets/`？ 

Thanks :D

hello, how did you solve this problems?

你把那个脚本下载到你本地安装目录下，然后 `load_dataset(csv_script_path, data_fiels)`

I also experienced this issue this morning. Looks like something specific to windows.
I'm working on a fix

I opened a PR @wn1652400018

Thanks you!, It works very well.
