Don't.
The only app that the user wants to empty the trash is Finder, not yours. If they want it emptied (or emptied securely), they'll go to the Finder and use the menu there. It's OK for your app to move stuff to the trash as long as it's clear to the user that will happen, but emptying it is not your business. The clue really is the fact that doing so is not supported directly by an API.
