Narrative:
Okc tower cleared us for takeoff on runway 17L. We began our takeoff roll and were accelerating through 92 KTS when tower said; 'xxxxx abort.' we aborted the takeoff. We then saw a military T-38 cross our front at about 200 ft AGL. The tower told us that the military jet also took the takeoff clearance for runway 13 which crosses our flight path. We did not hear the military jet respond that he was cleared for takeoff on runway 13 because they use UHF radios. I don't know how the tower recognized the problem; but they are the ones that called for the abort. We taxied clear and had to return to the gate for required maintenance inspections.
