Summary: A version of Cuntz-Krieger algebras associated with infinite, possibly infinite valued matrices with any number of zero entries correspond to $C^{\ast}$-algebras of directed graphs with any number of edges, sources, sinks, and isolated vertices. We show that the correspondence established previously between representations and $\ast$-endomorphisms involving the original Cuntz-Krieger algebras extends to this setting, so to a correspondence between representations of Cuntz-Krieger algebras for infinite matrices and $\ast$-endomorphisms of a direct sum of type I factors.
