You can't. There's a recent thread on the Saxon forum about this:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1027851&forum_id=94027
The answer is, instead of generating your transformation as an XMLFilter,
use a SAXTransformerHandler. You can still pipeline transformations, and in
many ways the code is easier.
Other options:
(a) In Saxon 7.x, you can cast the XMLFilter to a net.sf.saxon.Filter, which
provides access to getTransformer().setParameter()
(b) Pass the parameter values down the pipeline so they arrive as part of
the source document
(c) Write a URIResolver to deliver the parameter values in response to a
call on document()

# Subject: [xsl] Trax and how to pass parameters to
#
# Can anyone tell me how to pass parameters to Trax (javax) if you are
# using a filter? I have included my sample code below.
#
# Note that I have actually compiled one stylesheet and passed a parameter
# to it, but I can't actually use the passed parameters in my chain below.
#
# I asked this question on the Sun mailing list with no responses. It
# seems using XMLFilter is still kind of a black art!

# Thanks

# Templates stylesheet1 = tfactory.newTemplates(new
# StreamSource(xslID_1));
# Transformer transformer1 = stylesheet1.newTransformer();
# transformer1.setParameter("date", "works");
#
# // If one success, assume all will succeed.
# if (tfactory.getFeature(SAXSource.FEATURE))

# SAXTransformerFactory stf = (SAXTransformerFactory)tfactory;
# XMLReader reader=null;

# } catch( NoSuchMethodError ex2 ) {
# }
# if( reader==null ) reader = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader();
#
# XMLFilter filter1 = stf.newXMLFilter(stylesheet1);
# XMLFilter filter2 = stf.newXMLFilter(new StreamSource(xslID_2));
# XMLFilter filter3 = stf.newXMLFilter(new StreamSource(xslID_3));
