That is a punctuation called ellipsis marks. It's used when omitting a word, phrase, line, paragraph, or more from a quoted passage. Example sentences:

At Gettysburg, Lincoln said, "Fourscore and seven years ago...".

I just celebrated my ...birthday.

Rhyming phrases from a nursery rhyme, "...white as snow, ...sure to go."

An unofficial use is to leave the rest of the sentence to the reader's imagination:

Jane wore an expensive diamond bracelet. She said that it was a gift from her fiancee, Jim. Since Jim is already married, what she means by fiancee is... (Sugar daddy? Herself? She borrowed it? She stole it? Use your imagination.)
