Mr. Wong in Chinatown

1939
Mystery
1h 11m
A pretty Chinese woman, seeking help from San Francisco detective James Lee Wong, is killed by a poisoned dart in his front hall, having time only to scrawl "Captain J" on a sheet of paper. She proves to be Princess Lin Hwa, on a secret military mission for Chinese forces fighting the Japanese invasion. Mr. Wong finds two captains with the intial J in the case, neither being quite what he seems; there's fog on the waterfront and someone still has that poison-dart gun. (imdb)

The 3rd Mr. Wong with Boris Karloff, and it's not as good as the two previous films. Once the killing has happened the story goes all over the place as a standard B-mystery. Karloff is great as usual, but too much focus is put on the Police Captain and the newspaper woman, instead of the more enigmatic Mr. Wong. Not that they had any interesting suspects either, so it become a little bland.
