Narrative:

On flight lax-dfw we were cleared for takeoff on runway 25R. Ground control inadvertently cleared a B737 to cross runway 25R and instructed them to hold short. The tower instructed us to cancel takeoff clearance. We aborted uneventfully at 120 KTS and exited the runway prior to reaching the B737.
