I did this:
sqlite> create table august
(MERCHANT_ID,DBA,WHITELABEL_ID,ORDER_ID,TRANSACTION_DISPLAY_DATE,TYPE,STATE,TRANSACTION_AMOUNT);
sqlite> .separator ","
sqlite> .import portalUseMonthly_20140901.csv august

doing:
sqlite> .mode csv
sqlite> .import C:/work/somedata.csv tab
(with correct values)

Results in .schema assuming everything as text

So I'll just need to make transaction_amount number
