Narrative:
We were cleared for takeoff on runway 26L in atl. During the takeoff roll; I observed a caravan taxiing south on taxiway D; approaching the runway. At some point above 100 knots; the tower said '(call sign) cancel your takeoff clearance.' I initiated a rejected takeoff around 110 knots. We cleared the runway and taxied to the deice area on ramp 6 to let the brakes cool; perform the QRH; and calculate the brake energy in the optimum performance capable. I contacted dispatch and let them know what happened; and we were doing a gate return. At the gate a logbook entry was made. Maintenance performed an inspection and signed off the aircraft off after a 90 minute cooling period. I kept the passengers updated during all phases of the event.I would like to see a PA microphone hooked up to the existing jack on the pedestal. The 'remain seated' PA announcement would be easier and quicker with a dedicated PA microphone; considering the many different existing comm panels.
