This is called an ellipsis and indicates the omission or suppression of words, or parts of words, as in "I'd write more on the subject, but . . . . " or "I'd write more . . . but I don't have time."

The use and placement of the ellipsis can vary according to what it is being used to indicate. If used at the end of a sentence there should be four dots. You can read more about it at the links provided below.
