What you have here is the shell on machine A interpreting the command line rather than just passing it over to machine B. It seems the semi colon as part of the command to machine A.
Try adding single quotes around the entire command you wish to pass, so probably before the for and after the done although you will have to then consider if you need to escape the single quotes you have in the string you are passing. You might end up with:-
Code:
ssh user@machineB 'for n in `find /data1/ -name \'ini*jsem\'` ; do echo cp $n "`dirname $n `/` basename $n .jsem`"; done'
Have a play with simpler code to work out what gets passed and how on your systems.
I'm not too sure if ; done is valid either. Does this exact command work when run directly on machine B? If so, then I'm obviously mistaken. So many coding styles.......

xon
xon(1X)xon(1X)NAME
xon - start an X program on a remote machine
SYNOPSIS
xon remote-host [-access] [-debug] [-name window-name] [-nols] [-screen screen-no] [-user user-name] [command...]
OPTIONS
Note that the options follow the remote host name (as they do with rlogin). Runs xhost locally to add the remote host to the host access
list in the X server. This will not work unless xhost is given permission to modify the access list. Normally, xon disconnects the remote
process from stdin, stdout and stderr to eliminate the daemon processes which usually connect them across the network. Specifying the
-debug option leaves them connected so that error messages from the remote execution are sent back to the originating host. This specifies
a different application name and window title for the default command (xterm). Normally xon passes the -ls option to the remote xterm;
this option suspends that behaviour. This changes the screen number of the DISPLAY variable passed to the remote command. By default, xon
simply uses rsh/remsh/rcmd to connect to the remote machine using the same user name as on the local machine. This option cause xon to
specify an alternative user name. This will not work unless you have authorization to access the remote account, by placing an appropriate
entry in the remote users file.
DESCRIPTION
The xon program runs the specified command (default xterm -ls) on the remote machine using rsh, remsh, or rcmd. xon passes the DISPLAY,
XAUTHORITY and XUSERFILESEARCHPATH environment variables to the remote command.
When no command is specified, xon runs 'xterm -ls'. It additionally specifies the application name to be 'xterm-remote-host' and the win-
dow title to be 'remote-host'.
xon can only work when the remote host will allow you to log in without a password, by having an entry in the file permitting access.
BUGS
xon can get easily confused when the remote-host, user-name or various environment variable values contain white space.
xon has no way to send the appropriate X authorization information to the remote host.
